Why does Amtrak route some trips in the most roundabout way?

Tried booking Albuquerque → Minneapolis, which should just be ABQ → Chicago → MSP (around 28 hours). But the Amtrak app gave me ABQ → LA → Portland → MSP almost 87 hours total.


Why on earth would it do that? Is it a schedule thing, or just a weird gap in connections?
