Thank you so much for putting into words what I have feeling but struggling to verbalize. (Boston area, drive for work.)
There is one more downside, they are easy to get lost in, especially in an unfamiliar area. Apple Maps does an OK job guiding me most of the time, but just yesterday I spent an extra 25 minutes going through the same roundabout 3 times before I went the right direction, and each time I had to drive the wrong way, turn around, and then negotiate the same roundabout again.

How big was this roundabout when it took 25 minutes doing 3 victory laps in a roundabout?
You might want to petition your local government to put the signs of the exits before the roundabout, together with exit signs inside of the roundabout, helps a lot to see what exit you should take.
Alternatively, try a different map viewer, both Google Maps and Waze handles roundabouts excellently with zero issues, Apple Maps might still be too new to be useful for daily use.
Roundabouts are perfect when youre confused, just go around and read all the signs 3 times, then select the exit! :)
