On a more serious note, are you sure that portals obey the rule that the shortest path is the straight line?

yeah, they definitely don't. since portals behave like impenetrable surfaces there's going to be multiple situations where the shortest path has turns.

Plus, portals represent a cut in space and/or time, so the shortest path using a portal isn't a straight line, but a cut/segmented path that only appears connected from certain viewpoints.
