The right indicator is required if the vehicle intends to exit after the halfway point).

As I said, those rules are silent on what a driver taking an exit that is halfway around the roundabout is supposed to do. It could, therefore, be implied that no signal is required.
I admit, it would appear you don't have to indicate right.

Having said that, if you look at the aerial shot of the roundabout in question, the 'straight ahead' or continuing road is actually more than halfway around the roundabout....

It's silly wording really because roundabouts take many different forms with varying amounts of entering roads.

The numbering of exits, (first exit, second exit etc) comes from navigation voice commands and is very easy to understand.
