When I get this error, startDestDisplayName just gives me an arbitrary Dest Id when declaring startDest with Routes. I have to debug the source and check the route value to figure out what's wrong.

I suggest to display the route instead of this ID, by updating the startDestDisplayName logic or just displaying the route pattern somehow for easier debugging.
