Because normally if I see signs directing me to a particular destination, I would think that must be the most efficient route. Am i wrong in the thinking?
There are TWO toll roads leading from the airport. The Greenway, which is the road that was built to get tourists from the airport to Disney and off of 528 and I-4, and the Beachline (528) to I-4, which is the old way to get to Disney before they built the Greenway.
The signs to Disney lead you to the Greenway, which is a longer drive and the tolls are higher.
If you go the other way, and make sure you drive West, you will go to 528 and I-4 and pay a lower toll and not drive as far.
So, while I agree with you that in most cases, following the signs to your destination is usually the fastest and most efficient route, in this case, it is not.
