Regarding the query about the routing decision having one output, it is there to indicate that a routing decision really does take place. Since routing is not the responsibility of Netfilter, there is no decision to be made by Netfilter at all. Nevertheless, it is practically useful for the diagram to show that it happens; in particular, that output hooks are effected afterwards.
