Try visualizing the current by using arrows of a proportional length directing from+ to - (or in opposite direction).
Comment on Which path would the electrical current take?

On a real circuit where every component is different from each other, yes there will be current there.
On that ideal circuit, try specifying the characteristics of those components and writing down how much current goes through each segment. That will let you understand what is happening.

If the book is trying to explain an Wien bridge, the OP will need to actually put numbers there. Just looking at the sizes won’t be enough.

It doesn’t matter if you use numbers or scaled! vectors.

Thanks! In this book, for better and for worse, we are only trying to understand binary logic and how to express parts of that (AND and OR) with serial and parallel switches, so we’re not really touching on the electrical characteristics of the individual components. But I’ll keep your reply in mind going forward! 😊
