The original public-landing routing refactor migrated WelcomeRouter,
WelcomeStep1, and WelcomeStep2 post-onboarding redirects to /home, but
left four sites still pointing at the old / + query-string destinations:
- WelcomeStep3 `completeWizardAndExit` (Send invites)
- WelcomeStep3 `handleSkipStep` (Skip)
- VerifyEmailPage post-verify auto-redirect (`setTimeout`)
- VerifyEmailPage success-state "Go to dashboard" Link
These all worked by accident because PublicLanding redirects authed
users from / to /home — so users still landed on the dashboard, but
through an unnecessary mount-and-redirect flicker, and the
`?welcome=true` / `?verified=1` query markers got dropped on the way.
Drop both query markers — neither is read anywhere in the codebase
(grepped frontend/src; the dashboard's onboarding UX is driven by
`getOnboardingStatus`, not URL state). Carrying dead URL params
just invites future "is this load-bearing?" investigations.
Test stubs in WelcomeStep3.test.tsx and VerifyEmailPage.test.tsx
moved from `<Route path="/">` to `<Route path="/home">` so the
assertions verify the new destination instead of accidentally matching
the old one (the previous stubs masked the partial migration).
Out of scope: AcceptInvitePage and OAuthCallbackPage still use
`?welcome=teammate`, but that one carries an explicit "decoded by the
dashboard in Task 41" annotation and may be wired up later, so left
untouched.
