Map chart: Line connector does not cross dateline, it should?

When visualizing flight paths or shipping routes, the lines don't cross the dateline, so instead of crossing the pacific ocean the line gets drawn across the entire world (Europe/Asia). This hardly makes any sense, and unfortunately limits the use for flight/shipping visualizations.
This seems to work fine in both PowerBI and Tableu, however, we want to use Spotfire.

It would as a minimum be nice to have the choice?

I stumbled upon this community post from 2019 regarding the exact same issue.. https://tibco.force.com/tibcocommunity/s/question/0D54z00007mxXG6CAM/map-chart-network-map-line-connector-does-not-cross-dateline
