Stop lights will never be smart enough to tell you when you can "just go" until they're good enough to drive the cars for you, and then that choice will be taken from you anyhow.
Drivers must always pay attention to what's going on around them. Trying to simplify their decisions will just end up with more people getting hurt as drivers claim they had the right because the light said so.

Not that it stops pedestrians crossing whenever they like or people running reds, but it does take some of the stress out of driving.
