Why is there no updatePath?

[caoimhebyrne]

updateTag was added in Next 16, why is there no updatePath equivalent? Adding tags to a lot of the fetch requests that we have in our code-base is quite cumbersome as they are auto-generated. Is there any other way to ensure that stale data is not shown to the user after a server action has been run? (using optimistic updating requires a huge refactor of the current code, too)

There's refresh https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/refresh which can be used to "refresh" the route that fires the server action. I know it is not necessarily an updatePath though. To be honest, I haven't had time to put that one to use besides some simple calls.
