React Navigation Nested No Route Params v5 - react-native

Question

I can't seem to get any route params in my nested navigator. The params are present in the parent navigator, but they are not reachable in the child navigator.
So the child navigator does render the correct screen, but it does not have any params in the route (namely a category or product id).
It feels like I am misusing some syntax, but I can't quite figure out which one. Here is the stack of code, edited down a bit to make it easier to read.

}
export default function App() {
return <ApplicationNavigator />
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
justifyContent: 'center',
paddingTop: Constants.statusBarHeight,
padding: 8,
backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF',
},
});
UPDATE
I have noted that if I initialize the params (blank, with values, whichever) outside of the custom drawer content first, the above code begins to work as expected.

Very simple and silly fix that a rubber duck could solve.
Screen !== screen. I was passing in an unknown param to navigate.
