Well, it’s not. Cyclists are encouraged to wait in front of traffic in bike boxes by the Highway Code, they aren’t being dicks, they’re following the rules.
By stopping in front, cyclists in theory are safer by being more visible, can get underway and into position for turning before traffic and they’re not sat in pollution from drivers. Perhaps get a bit of patience and read the HC whist you’re at it?
