True, but I think the show does at least make an attempt to be realistic.
i.e., After Hardhome Jon showed up North of the wall and many geeks bashed the show for not sailing those ships to Eastwatch and walking south of the wall. However in the books Martin has made it clear that the paths south of the wall are full of hills and travel is much slower. B&W have commented on this so even if they fail they at least make small attempts to do it right.
Plus on Theon. We have no idea how much earlier in time Sansa and Theon escaped compared to other parts of the story. For all we know that part makes more sense then the others around it.
