Why does the Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection distort shapes and angles?
Because it prioritizes preserving area over maintaining shape and angle accuracy.
Because it is designed to preserve angles at the expense of area.
Because it projects the Earth onto a cylinder rather than a disk.

What is the primary advantage of the Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection compared to conformal projections?
It preserves angles and shapes perfectly across the entire map.
It preserves area accurately across the map, ensuring proportional representation of regions.
It minimizes distance distortions between all points on the map.
