The Ryde end can easily be dealt with by waiting for the train to pass the Box and the Signaller visually checking the tail lamp himself.

It could be - but Ryde box is some way from the single line junction and, when we were there, I'm sure that the Signalman had already pulled off for the Down train before the Up had passed the box. As you say though, the risk of a train dividing is probably considered so small that it's an acceptable method of working.
