At least, I don’t think it is.
From the clickbaity “According To Science, This Is The Perfect And Best Road Trip You Can Possibly Take.”
WITH THE HELP OF A SOPHISTICATED ALGORITHM, THIS ROAD TRIP ALLOWS YOU TO START IN ANY STATE. JUST HOP ON AT THE POINT THAT RUNS THROUGH YOUR STATE AND KEEP GOING UNTIL YOU’RE BACK AT YOUR STARTING POINT!
That’s from the linked article, but the two source articles, “How to Really Drive Across the U.S. Hitting Major Landmarks” and “Computing the optimal road trip across the U.S.”, mention using algorithms for visiting all the major U.S. landmarks. That’s fine, but it’s not science. For starters, math is deductive and non-falsifiable, science is inductive and falsifiable. Those are two defeating differences. Am I wrong?
The title of the article is wrong in other ways, too: the “perfect and best road trip” is any road trip you prefer to take. Math and science have nothing to do with it.
