It is false for the UK.

The whole system of US of needing to leave the country to even renew visas is absolutely bizarre and does not have analogues in most other countries (at least EU/UK)

The logic of it is that if your visa renewal is rejected they don’t have to catch you and deport you. You already deported yourself.

Having to go abroad when a visa/PR has already been granted is totally pointless. Green cards are mailed to your home in the US right now.
