TfL suggests routes based on many factors, not just speed. Will suggest routes that have less demand to spread crowding, will suggest changes with less stairs for routes where customers are likely to have luggage (essentially to/from Heathrow) and many other factors.
Though sometimes it can just throw up some silly routes.

Or this December with a change at Paddington.
