”Best” in this case might be to not sail at all. Flying would be faster, cheaper, and safer. But that completely misses the point of why people would choose to sail instead.

The “best” characterization is a fundamental mistake.
Many people choose to use maps because, for whatever reason, they like how they work. Thus,
for them, maps are the “best” option.
You are dismissive, based on your limited understanding and biases, of what is completely their choice. That’s arrogant
