Whats going on with routing?

There is an issue with Expo SDK 50 where when one uses "registerRootComponent" to have a custom entry file that is not "app/index.tsx", the parent "_layout.tsx" files are not recognized. To work around this, I have the default entry point but immediately manually load the actual entry screen (All Stops inside Nav).
