Agreed, and our MATS Pt2 does mention that those departures don't follow the right hand rule...can't really see a way around it though...??
FYI if you wanna come in higher its rarely a problem especially from the south, from the north can be more tricky(on 27) as we drop the inbounds to 3 thousand as they are going north abeam.
Agreed about the Markfield masts too, that is why when I depart southbound, cloud base permitting, I ask for not about 3 thousand, also gives CAS protection for longer!!!
