To Reproduce
- Install project
- Run project locally
- Check console for logs of both routes
Describe the Bug
In layout.tsx I want to render conditionally render a parallel route, f.e. if a user is logged in or not. Currently it runs code from both routes. Console.log's of both page.tsx in root and page.tsx in @auth are being run.
Expected Behavior
Based on the condition I only expect the console.log from the returned page to run.

Research direction
Start with the linked reproduction project and inspect its layout.tsx, root page.tsx, and @auth/page.tsx files. Run the project locally and compare the console output from both parallel routes with the condition in the layout. Done means only the conditionally returned route executes.
