I'd bet that the differences between routes that looks the same are very minimal, like turning left instead of right on a block which makes you go around it, adding 2 more minutes to your commute.
The routes I'm refering to are very short and do not differ at all.
I have not compared the ETAs.
I'm spoiled by my TomTom device. It used all roads and did not try to stay on just the main roads as the TCH seems to be doing.
(I have also set my speeds)
