Use Cartopy's project_geometry() instead of transform_points() for choropleth polygon projection. transform_points() projects vertices independently without geometric awareness, so polygons crossing the antimeridian (e.g. Russia) produce path segments that jump across the entire map, rendering as visible horizontal lines. project_geometry() properly splits and clips polygons at projection boundaries before converting to matplotlib paths, eliminating the artifacts on all projections (Robinson, Mercator, Mollweide, etc.).
