People of this bored come up with decent explanations for most of the pacing issues, so why not just have the character briefly talk about or show some of these very simplistic explanations.
The problem for me is that time and distance are being used as major plot devices but then ignored whenever its convenient. For example, Tyrion came up with his plan to take advantage of geographical restrictions. The unsullied also became stuck. An episode later a Raven is able to traverse great distances in a few moments.

And 100% these problems could be quite easily fixed with an extra 2-3 seconds of screen time and some attention to detail.

Still loving the show though. It's a bit unfortunate that a show that used to be all about the details has become more of an action set piece though.
