Cape of Good Hope is not a chokepoint, you just sail further away from the shore

Strait of Malacca is not a chokepoint, you detour south and take one of the other passages between the islands in Indonesia.

I’m not sure you can add all that up and get a total of 90% of the worlds oil, like I am sure at least half of the oil going through hormuz is also going through malacca for example. You might want to do a little research and make sure there aren’t other double countings like suez and el-mandeb also coming out of hormuz. I think the world total of oil going through choke points will be less than the 90% total if you address the double counting.
