Sorry, that must be a bug. On desktop the map is large enough to be visible in its entirety but it is supposed to pan on mobile... I'll try to fix that
Indeed, you can't do this perfectly – it's an approximation. I just use one of the two directions as the travel time because if I wanted to symmetrize I'd have to call the Google Maps API twice . Asymmetry aside, it's also not possible to perfectly embed metrics in 2D Euclidean space, or any-dimensional Euclidean space for that matter (see other comment)
Oh yes, unfortunately, you can't do this perfectly. There are some graphs that cannot be embedded in Euclidean space in any number of dimensions, e.g. a 4-cycle with distance measured by path length. It's a good-enough approximation for visualization purposes, though.
