In physics we use the term "straightforward" for something that doesn't require a conceptual leap but might take a bit of thinking.

  Circumnavigating the earth in an airplane is straight forward.

    Depending on your frame of reference "straight forward" will launch you into space.

      Depending on your frame of reference "keep perfectly still" will launch you into space. But how would that be a useful choice?

        I was referring to whether a "straight forward line" would be tangent to the surface of the Earth (i.e., straight) or curved to follow the globe.
