Man I always hated this, because it IS actually the bell’s job to say when we leave - because if we don’t, then we’re late to the next teacher’s lesson, who then either has to do the same thing, or cut their teaching plan short to compensate - neither of which is a fair deal for us or that next teacher
On the flip side, I had a super chill Physics teacher at the end of the day one year and he would regularly let us slip out like 2 minutes early, which was just enough time to get to the parking lot and beat the busses which would block traffic leaving for 20 minutes.
It was kind of nice, it meant getting home much earlier.
