Given the delay (~48+hrs) associated with getting test results, it should really go the other way— after a known exposure, you are treated as infected, the isolation and contact tracing process begins, and it's only after a negative test result that you're cleared.

That's possible only if your public health system is equipped to force large numbers of people to undergo certain medical procedures. In the U.S. there exists significant opposition to that sort of capability.
