I wonder how many seconds per stop that (backing in) is supposed to save. On second thought it may be more for accident avoidance than time savings.

It has been suggested that drivers back into their parking spaces as well, because it's easier/safer/faster to pull forward into traffic than to back into traffic. It's a trifecta, really. Saves time, safer, and saves a minute amount of fuel.
Backing out of traffic is fairly safe, as well, although probably not as safe as forward maneuvering out of traffic.
