This isn't an English language question. The technology in question doesn't guarantee a singular route or a path to a destination. Subsequent packets from an originating host to a destination host can follow different paths. Even during an activity such as a traceroute. A packet that reached its TTL at what is presented as hop 12 didn't necessarily traverse previous hops displayed by traceroute.
