If you stay there, blocking traffic for no reason, and do not proceed when you are clear to go, as it did until the driver accelerated, you will fail a driving license exam in most countries.

"Most countries" would fail a driver for not crossing an intersection until there is space on the other side? I think you're being a little absurd here.

The driver in this case could see that the cars beyond the blue car were starting to move, and thus predict that he could cross a little bit early (betting on the space being available by the end of the maneuver, but risking being the ass who ends up blocking the crosswalk after miscalculating).

Here in the UK you'd be failed for blocking an intersection.
