It's a little of both. Using the diverging leg as part of a curve puts a "kink" in the curve. This can cause problems, not always, depending on the quality of the track-laying and rolling stock, the speed involved, etc., etc. Just like so many other things in this hobby, what works for one is taboo for another. If you aren't having problems, don't worry about it, and if you are, you know where to look!
