I would say: map the restriction.

Mapping the allowed_left_turn is not recognisable by artificial
intelligence in an reliable way.  What about a road making a curb to
the left and an other road coming from front. The computer will not be
able to recognize.

If the defaults are mapped on the country boundary, what if I download
only a small area instead of feeding the whole planet.osm file to my
routing engine? The engine will not be aware of the default values.
