RWGPS -- maybe it's a related reason to your mention, but RWGPS while route designing, labels local stores/restaurants and POIs, etc.
Strava, unless I missed a setting somewhere, does not. Ability to route past potential rest stops or snackage suppliers can be important.

Also, and maybe again just not really trying with Strava, but Strava seems to yield way too many directional prompts -- not just "turn right onto XXX", but then followed by "proceed onto XXX" and sometimes also adding a further "continue on XXX" a tiny bit later. It wasn't obvious how one can see all of the cues that would end up in a TCX file, without selecting the "print" function, nor how to delete unnecessary individual cues.
