To me it really seems like a roadmap. You're at one place and trying to get to another 12 hours away. Logically it seems like a straight shot to the destination makes the most sense. But that straight shot isn't a straight road. And a lot of the time its speed limit isn't what we want. But if we ignore the straight shot, drive backwards for two hours we connect to a no toll freeway with an average speed of 80mph. The 12 hour trip is now an 11 hour trip, but you use a bit more gas. You also have different scenery. There isn't a right or a wrong road but the experience will be different depending on your choice.
