Yes widening can be a bad omen for induced demand and such, but the whole road is 4 lanes except here. This is fixing a bottleneck to make it flow better overall, not really adding much in terms of capacity.

There aren't any lefts from Stanley. Not sure if you meant southbound turning left, which they presently can't do going onto Horton but would after this. Or if you meant the northbound turning left onto that short residential leg of Springbank and then having to make another left onto the 4 lane leg where Horton becomes Springbank. I wonder if after this project is done, they could do away with that light. Would be a pain for the people in the neighbourhood to make that left, but how many of them would there be to justify having a light? Maybe because of the curve, they might keep it.
