Is it safe to check the user session only in middleware and not in routes in Hono?

This is not recommended in Fullstack frameworks like SvelteKit and Nextjs. But with Hono, can we rely on this? I mean checking the session in a global middleware, and just returning 401 there if cannot get it... I believe yes, but I just want to double check, and also maybe some experienced person can update the documentation 🙂 https://www.better-auth.com/docs/integrations/hono
