Er sorry.
The ambiguity arises because I wanted the journey to be a reasonable
distance... let's say through two or three rooms/ corridors or more - a
distance where a range of solutions like those proposed - use a scooter/
have s.o. carry you in a wheelbarrow ... would be relevant - as opposed to
say, moving the next three feet, (where there still might be a range of new
solutions but much fewer).
So in fact, A to B will do as long as you understand it's a reasonable
distance.
But it's open to you to create your own variations of the problem scenario.
One shouldn't be too pedantic or literal.

Disambiguate-
1. Move from starting point A to either B or D
2. Move from either A to B or take another option D
I feel we should practice unambiguous speech with each other so we can
have some hope of conversation with machine intelligence. The less
guess it has to do about what we actually meant, the more productive
the dialog can be. It helps between people too.
humorous example: My wife and I had finished a discussion about
various ways to contain the dog in our yard. After a long pause, I
asked, "How would you feel about fencing in our yard?" She threw me a
shocked expression and asked, "Are you challenging me to a duel?" I
laughed, "I meant: putting a fence around the yard, she understood: a
sword fight with rapiers"
