use `route get x` flags are expanded, unlike with "show"
i know of at least one place where route(1) is used in scripts, /etc/netstart. if that weren't the case, i would suggest altering the output of `route -v`. i would expect the latter to also be used in scripts since manipulating routes in terms of labels is probably useful.
