They don't waste their scarce highway funding resources in road signs, that's for sure.
I think you're the second person at least that has mentioned that. I haven't a clue what you're talking about. I have no issues with the signage, and travel extensively all over the state since I have a lot of family that lives here.
I can't say it's any different than anywhere else I've been in that regard.
As an out-of-towner who recently drove through New Jersey, I noticed plenty of signs telling me where NOT to turn, but precious few showing where I could turn.
The guy who pumped my gas finally told me how to turn around to get back on the highway, and kindly spilled gas on my paint.
Thought I had the no left turn business figured out on the return trip. Got off for a pit stop, just a block or two from the highway. When I went back to the light to make a right turn back to the on-ramp, I was only allowed to go left. A mile the other direction, circling around a block to turn left at a light, and the mile back got me to the ramp. No wonder NJ drivers are so frustrated. It makes me want to honk a horn just sitting here explaining it.
That's how it works from central to northern NJ. Moving south of the I-195, it's toss up if you can turn left or not. You just never know until you know. And by then it might be too late so you have to turn around and try again.
