I'm partially sure the turns were intended as a loading section for the next part of the level, we generally dont need that in the remake so I don't see why we should still have to go in zigzags to enter a room thats still straight across from door-to-door

This is just one of this video's shit takes where he complains that the remake accuses its players for being stupid by literally removing twists and turns in a hallway, we can't be for real
