That's a misinterpretation of the poem. The point was that both paths were equally valid but no matter what he picked, he would always think that the other was better. It was a poem about "the grass is always greener on the other side"
I was still surprised.
At the very least, it's possible he could 1.) travel both paths, if they are relatively short OR 2.) travel part of the first path, then either cut across directly or loop back to travel part of the other path. Hell, they might even connect and form a big circle, if they're headed in the same direction, so you could probably make a scenic loop? Worst case scenario, you go back another day.
