Is beforeNavigate not trigger when enter the url in browser address bar directly or refreshing the page?

I have a SPA site which will check whether the user has logged in or not in beforeNavigate.
But when I enter the protected url in browser address bar directly or refreshing the protected page(logout in another tab),
the beforeNavigate didn't trigger.

Is this by design?

After some chatting in discord, I found out we can put the checking logic inside load, and access client-side api (like localStorage etc) inside if (browser) clause.
