+ * The route template a request matched, for the wide event's `http.route`.
+ *
+ * `http.route` carried the concrete pathname, so `/api/medications/<cuid>`
+ * was a fresh route for every medication: a dashboard grouping by route
+ * counted thousands of one-request "routes" and could not answer the one
+ * question the field exists for — which handler is slow, which one fails.
+ * `http.path` keeps the concrete path; this field now names the handler.
+ *
+ * Next.js does not hand a route handler its template, but it does hand a
+ * dynamic one its `params`, and every dynamic segment's value is in there.
+ * So the template is recovered by putting each param's name back where its
+ * value sits: `[id]` for a single segment, `[...path]` for a catch-all run.
+ * Params are matched right to left, the order the segments appear in reverse,
+ * so a value that happens to equal an earlier static segment (`/api/x/x`) is
+ * placed on the dynamic segment rather than the static one.
+ *
+ * A static route has no params and its pathname already is its template. When
+ * a value cannot be found (a malformed encoding, a placeholder request in a
+ * test), the pathname is returned unchanged rather than a guess: redaction of
+ * path secrets runs on this field either way (`setHttp` → `redactSecrets`), so
+ * a fallback never carries a secret a template would have hidden.
