So, I’m a year late here, but I want to point out what an incredible (unintentional?) pun you made here.
A chord of a circle is a straight-line path that crosses through part of a circle without passing through the center. In a way, it’s like a “shortcut” between to points on the circumference.
A desire path through a circular obstacle (assuming it doesn’t go straight through the middle) would be a chord.
