  • Provide concrete example showing the relationship between SaaS zone, fallback origin, custom hostname, and Worker route
  • Clarify that wildcard route pattern (*/*) automatically captures custom hostname traffic
  • Rewrite step 4 with clearer routing options and examples
  • Add related resources section linking to hostname routing and Workers routes docs

Fixes #27397
