I do find myself trying to find interesting alternatives. Especially if we are in one location for a while. Goes over to, crosses the room, heads for .....
Agreed, in a shooting script who cares. In a Spec if there are only 16 places a character moves from A to B, only using walks could be seen as repetitive and indicate Actions lack punch.
Using other verbs is also a good way to instantly create emotional state: trudges, swaggers, strides, drags, lumbers, etc.

Very cool. Thanks for this.

Is the software that performs this magic available to screenwriters? I'm a little hesitant to send FD files out into the either.

Interesting indeed but I remain skeptical about anything online that roots around inside my computer. It would be nice software to have.

Have a smartphone? There are folks who have enough data to predict when you're going use the bathroom next.
