If you try to drive in a straight line from NY to LA it will become very chaotic the moment you hit something. It's physically impossible to drive perfectly straight from NY to LA. You have to make turns along the way.
So the act of turning in and of itself does not imply chaos. If it does then everyone is driving chaotically all the time.
It look like you try to twist my words.
I am not talking about accidents that can occur along the way or the fact that you intentionally want to stop here and there along the way.
I am talking about trying to go through the most linear way or instead not knowing how to proceed and therefore turning something that make sense into something that doesn't.
So this confusion can be called Chaos.
If I'm carjacked on the way to LA, and the assailants decide to drive to Denver instead, I would call that chaotic. (Although, that would only be chaotic relative to me. For them that might be the plan anyway, so to them it's not at all chaotic.)
But what I don't get is what any of this has to do with your first statement about a "straight line".
