Then again, it's not exactly trivial to solve the traveling salesman problem, not to mention all the real world considerations on top such as gathering everything to a central/sorting facility, last mile delivery, packing and unpacking, avoiding traffic/collisions (If applicable), errors, unpredictable circumstances, and so on
I'm sure improvements could made, buuut it's a tough problem for sure, and it's more important that something gets where it should at some point, than it getting there quicker
Yeah, its probably a lot more complex, but its still funny seeing a package get within 5km, only to shoot 60km away for a little vacation.
