You can't input a/d's as turning points because the route format follows the ICAO Flight Plan format. You can't put a/d's into a FP so you can't do it here. Frustrating but logical
Thanks for the clarification. However, it is not really logical for primarily VFR flyers as we tend not to file flight plans unless going overseas. What is logical is that we will fly to a nice prominent land feature, like an airfield, then turn. And avoid passing over VORs where possible. Anyway, surely there's nothing to stop it being suggested as a possible improvement?
