That's misleading. In the case of convention function names, (index, show, create), there's default :route metadata that is used automatically ... the docstrings are merely supplying a reminder.
This is described in the "Getting Started" page: https://portal.aviso.io/#/document/open-source/rook/Current/getting-started.html If you look at the increment endpoint function, which is not a convention name, it has explicit :route metadata. I'll update the example to make this much more clear.
