Why would you ever go through America to ship something from China to the EU? (which are 6/7 time zones apart vs 17/18 going in the other direction)

Northern China -> UK by container is like in the neighborhood of 5+ weeks.

China -> US is around 2 weeks, US -> EU is around 1 week.

So depending on where it was coming from, might make sense?

I dunno enough about the routes.
