But if we look at the bottle neck point - the point where traffic must be 1 lane - as long as that is moving at the same rate what is the difference if cars merge sooner or later? We're still getting the same number of cars per minute through the 1 lane section of road.

If there is an alternate turnoff that is being blocked by the traffic then yes I can see it. Otherwise I don't see how it makes any difference.
