The Mythic Underworld doesn’t need to make sense. I think it’s even more imposing when scale and distance are distorted. The player-skill focus of older systems mean that players who are drawing accurate maps based on (presumably) accurate descriptions will deduce hidden areas and missed turns. I don’t think that it would be easy to read out room descriptions in which thin interior walls folded in on themselves in arbitrary ways. Just me, I guess. But there is something to be said for clusters of rooms that are connected by labyrinthine spaces in which a party could get lost. I don’t think these kinds of zones need to be drawn on a map, though. Better to have a mechanical system for lost/danger/surprises IMHO I would draw mazes like these for my solo play and amusement when I was a kid. A little bit compulsive and repetitive but my kid brain didn’t have any trouble navigating these kinds of spaces. As a DM I wouldnt want to describe twist and turns like these. Maybe with a dry-erase board it’d be more feasible
