Frankly, the usage of having keywords in the URL is a very minimal factor. If everything were equal for a URL with the keywords in the URL and one without, there wouldn't be much more of a benefit to the one with the keywords in the URL.
However, if your overall site structure is one that has topics and subtopics or categories and subcategories, it would help the user see that site structure. For example, in the reddit example above, users can get directly to the askscience subreddit by removing part of the URL and going directly to https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/ https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/. Setting up URLs like this is a good practice, the URL would then follow the site's breadcrumb trail.
For H/N, I don't really see any benefit, at this point, for using keywords in the URLs. There's just no SEO benefit.
