Editorial context
The map is not the itinerary.
A Bavaria map can make everything look close enough. It cannot show the fatigue of changing towns every night, the friction of a coach transfer, or the difference between a settled city stay and a moving route.
Premier Germany should use the map as orientation, not as an invitation to overbuild the trip. The practical question is where the reader should base, what movement pattern they can sustain, and which guide can answer the next question.
Rail and car imply different guide choices.
Munich and the rail-served ends of the Romantic Road can start with rail logic. The middle of the route often becomes a car-or-coach planning problem. Deutsche Bahn and regional coaches shape what a car-free plan can honestly reach.
Those differences should shape the recommendation. A page that ignores movement mode will overpromise. A page that names the transport assumption can route the reader more honestly, and defer current timetables and prices to official sources.
Base logic is a trust test.
A guide should not widen just because a place is famous. It should widen when it can explain where to sleep, what radius makes sense, what tradeoffs the reader faces, and where its own limits begin.
Until then, Premier Germany can describe the guide's role and avoid promising detail that belongs in a future article.
