1P Any% Route Question

Hi guys, I'd like to ask if it wasn't faster in 1P Any% if you get 2 moons in The Invisible Maze (Sand Kingdom, after "Lost in the Luggage") instead of slower ones (e.g. Employees Only; From a Crate in the Ruins): The Invisible Maze has 2 very fast moons and you have to travel around 10-15sec from Lost in the Luggage to get to the subarea. The subarea itself (when you include both moons) lasts 15secs too. After those 2 moons, you could warp to the Odyssey if they were your last ones in Sand Kingdom. Wouldn't that be faster than some other moons?

No because the sign moon takes forever to spawn, it takes 10-15s like you said to travel which is too long for travel time between moons, employee's only is used to spawn the seed moon and the crate cutscene is shorter than the sign spawn cutscene.

these routes were meticulously crafted by the community, over the course of many months. Just follow the routes and you should be good.

I mean you can question the routes because this game is nowhere near as optimal as something like 64 but they won't always be the best ideas for route changes.
