When searching for directions on Google Maps, it says "Swimming across the Atlantic"

"When you search for a route on Google Maps,"Swim across the Atlantic"I got a lot of alternatives to come up with 'I'm going to have a tremendous choice of options. "

Apparently, when searching for a route between the US and Europe, it seems to be said that "Swim across the Atlantic in any case". People in Google are assuming users of this route search service as triathlons or some ironmen, a tremendous hitchhiker, or someone who is training for mortal work development. Among them, I really do not feel like someone will run this plan.

Details are as follows.
For example, suppose you want to find a route from Chicago to London.

So, certainly it says "Swim across the Atlantic Ocean" and if clicked it is supposed to get into the Atlantic from the middle like this.


From New York to Berlin you still need to "swim across the Atlantic". Both ships and aircraft are not included. What is going on?


In the case of Berlin to New York this time. A wonderful search result saying that you can swim the Atlantic Ocean 5572 kilometers is displayed.
