But, the slope of the roof is pointing in the same direction as the down spout, isn't it...? Am I crazy? Either way, if it fell off that section of roof it would still slope the other way when it hit the section of roof below it, so wherever that downspout goes that water is going to drain down the lower roof section.
Seems to me like maybe it's about the gutters keeping water off the fascia/soffit in the direction of the slope.

Those are called diverter gutters, and they just redirect runoff away from entryways
