Load sharing with equal cost. Quote below. Why does it work like this?

Question

Network administration

This is not very logical, because data will reach the fastest channel faster with an equal delay, see the topology below

"The routing table contains both of these routes. Figure 3 shows that R3 has two equal-cost EIGRP routes for network 172.16.3.0/30. One route is through R1 at 192.168.10.5, and the other route is through router R2 at 192.168.10.9 From the topology in Figure 1, it might seem that the path through R1 is more optimal, because routers R3 and R1 are connected by a link with a bandwidth of 1544 Kbps, and the bandwidth on the link to R2 is only 1024 Kbps /sec. However, EIGRP only uses the slowest available bandwidth, which is the 64Kbps link between R1 and R2. On both paths, the 64Kbps link is the slowest, so the paths are equal."
