Avoiding setting up a separate sign is nothing less than pure laziness (or complete lack of knowledge from whoever does the destinations at Arriva).
The destinations flashing is linked to the Next Stop Announcement issue. GNE's Venture Solos had the same problem when new - difference being was that it was fixed within a week (not still ongoing about a year later!)
It's all really quite annoying, someone somewhere must have noticed the flicking, dim destinations, and the complete lack of Next Stop Announcement's when they get on the vehicle. The fact that nothing has been done, as you say, a year later, is highly unprofessional, lazy and unacceptable. Not great for a 'premium service' is it?
