I think some people might be blind to the actual distance.
But it'd mostly have to be the older generations.
You can't exactly be blind to distances if you use Google Maps nowadays. It'd mostly have to be unprepared older folks or stupid youngsters.
It'd be an indication of intelligence more than being European. I'd NEVER go plan a trip without.... Checking the distances between attractions I want to visit?
But my aunt and uncle didn't when they came to visit me in France from their tiny island. For them 35 min of travel was impossible.
