    I just looked it up, it’s a huge distance between Thailand and Argentina, about 17,000 km if you were flying. Going around the tip of South America adds an extra 1000 km, making the trip 6% longer. Meh.

      What are you saying? It’s longer. That’s my only point. Are you saying it’s not longer… “enough”? What’s the deal here, what are we doing?

        I mean, yes. It isn’t longer enough to make sea travel anything but the most efficient method to ship something.
