A route is the thing that I send to another person or save myself so that the specific piece of information I am looking at can be found again. There is a decision that has to be made, though. My selected text is never part of a route, but that might be the information I want to share. Conversely, when I open a hamburger menu to click the share button, the hamburger menu's open state is never the information I want to share.
Another consideration: does the route encompass the concept of the information being displayed, or the actual information? We typically solve this with a "permalink", where one route represents the concept (feed, newest, etc) and the permalink represents the specific information.
