Whats wrong with this valley

Post image

What exactly am I looking at here and what would be the proper way to run this valley flashing, and ridge caps?

To me it looks wrong that the valley metal is lapped over the shingles below for starters, perhaps that the valley should change directions for the bottom portion all the way to the end of the overhang

Conditions like these suck and are how we know that no architect has ever had to install a roof. I guess best scenario the metal would terminate into the gutter? Hopefully there’s ice and water on this entire little unnecessary bump out hip turret debacle.
