Really. Why is that? Because you say so? Because it's convenient for your argument?
As I recall, Dragonetti posted a decent description of one method that humans use to return to a point of origin without ever knowing where one is located, or without a map - using nothing but observations about one's surroundings.
As I was trained to utilize the same exact technique in the military, I can attest that it works.
