Changing auth generator's default route

I’m new to Rails and I’m making a small social media app using rails 8 auth generator, here’s my current route.rbfile.

Rails.application.routes.draw do
  # Define your application routes per the DSL in https://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html

  root "sessions#new"

  resource :session, only: [ :new, :create, :destroy ]
  resources :passwords, param: :token
  resources :users, except: [ :new, :create ]

  get "sign_up", to: "users#new"

  # Reveal health status on /up that returns 200 if the app boots with no exceptions, otherwise 500.
  # Can be used by load balancers and uptime monitors to verify that the app is live.
  get "up" => "rails/health#show", as: :rails_health_check

  # Render dynamic PWA files from app/views/pwa/* (remember to link manifest in application.html.erb)
  # get "manifest" => "rails/pwa#manifest", as: :pwa_manifest
  # get "service-worker" => "rails/pwa#service_worker", as: :pwa_service_worker

  # Defines the root path route ("/")
  # root "posts#index"
end

While I can access the sign in form through either root or /session/new, I want to only access Session’s new view only from root. How can I do this? Is this even worth doing because I notice that rails 8 auth generator already contain a good chunk of controller tests for PasswordsController and SessionsController, so is this worth doing in the first place or should I just accept that my sign in page will always be at /session/new?
