The important thing to remember is electricity doesn’t follow the shortest path

NO -- it follows the path of least IMPEDANCE, which is the path of least
INDUCTANCE, which is the SHORTEST path. Resistance matters ONLY to the
extent that a low resistance takes longer to vaporize, so the path able
to carry the strike for more of its duration. THAT'S why we want BIG
conductors.
