What's to explain? The bees found the shortest route. Do you suffer from the
misconception that NP-hard = insoluble? NP is just a description of how a computation
scales. For the number of places bees visit it may be very easy to solve, even though the
number of steps grows faster than polynomially with the number of places to visit.
