Original Note:
Mountains aren't the reason for the lack of strong and constant wind currents. Most of the air in the atmosphere already moves at roughly the same speed as Earth's rotation due to viscous friction and interaction with the crust. https://www.sciencefocus.com/planet-earth/how-does-the-atmosphere-rotate-with-the-earth
