I’m specifically referring to the lack of aesthetic details. For instance, IFR charts (https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/flight_info/aeronav/productcatalog/IFRCharts/LowAltitude/ https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/flight_info/aeronav/productc...) show just essential routing information. Here’s an example taxi diagram: https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/atpubs/aip_html/part3_ad_2.0_new_york.html https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/atpubs/aip_html... Again the key point I’m highlighting is lack of extraneous aesthetic. The view is even more similar to that used by ATC: https://atctower.com/what-the-atc-controller-sees-tech-in-the-tower/ https://atctower.com/what-the-atc-controller-sees-tech-in-th... If you’ve ridden a lot in planes, you may be used to looking at VFR sectionals (https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/flight_info/aeronav/productcatalog/VFRCharts/Sectional/ https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/flight_info/aeronav/productc...). These have more aesthetic detail precisely because they’re intended for visual navigation.
