Edit to say because I kinda feel bad now: I have nothing against English teachers! Please don’t send your mafia of learned lit nerds after me! …Or do, lit nerds are hot.

just agree to disagree I guess? I considered circumvent which is similar, but really there’s little etymological or metaphorical difference except personal preference
but also it might be an EN-UK vs EN-US thing (I grew up in England)
That might be it. Circumvent in this context would make perfect sense to me, but circumnavigate threw me for a loop.
