Because it appeals to my sense of whimsey. It was less whimsical and rather sad to see Santa go directly from Kyiv to Moscow.
Then, my practical grown up side started grumbling within when Santa, after hitting several different locations, headed back to Ukraine to visit Odessa. "I know that you don't use gas, Santa. But you could at least try to come up with a more efficient route?"
Oh, and the tracker shows some sort of particulate trail shooting out behind the sleigh. And since the sleigh is powered by reindeer. . . I'm hoping that maybe flying reindeer poop isn't as icky as that of other creatures. You know, since they're magic and all.
