A bad rule

When the dealer in a Hold'em game exposes the turn card before the action is completed, the standard procedure is:
1. Set aside the exposed turn card
2. Complete the action
3. Burn a card and put out a face up card -"the natural river"
4. Complete the turn betting
5. Reshuffle the exposed card into the stub and put out a river card without burning

Here is the problem I see with this rule. The player or players yet to act when the turn card was exposed know that this car will definitely not be the turn card. Thus some players have more information than others on the flop betting round. While it may be unlikely that this information will be useful, there will be situation where it will be.

Why not complete the flop action, then shuffle in the exposed card and put out the turn without burning?
