Strange behavior of the ZHA network

I have a Zigbee sensor for my home’s electricity monitoring system… the sensor is installed about 2 meters from the main coordinator (Conbee II).

Everything works fine, but why doesn’t the visual map connect directly to the coordinator? Instead, it connects to a switch in the bedroom about 8 meters away, then back to the coordinator?

Sometimes I see devices that, even though they’re close to the coordinator, connect to other devices that act as a bridge also if they are further away and with walls in between?

It is nothing to worry about. Just the nature of mesh networks.
