Australia, now closer to the US ... literally

The UN has agreed in theory today to extend Australia's continental shelf (ie. the area of water around the mainland that still counts as being Australia) by 2.5 million square kilometers.

So since Australia is now closer to the US, I assume the flights are going to take less time. Yes?
