OK, esp. since it's not the leading sense of 王道.

As it's quite common and limited to one sense of 王道, I'm inclined to let this one through.

Said "euphemistic", meant "idiomatic". Sorry about that.

This term is euphemistic("royal road").  One would never guess from 王道 that there was a 的 form, and one would never guess that 王道的 is limited specifically to sense[3] of 王道. If you see 王道的 in a text, you'll have to puzzle about which sense it is. 34608 ngrams seems common enough to me that this clarity would be useful.

You can append 的 to a vast number of terms. We don't usually include XX的 compounds unless there is a good reason. This one doesn't really seem needed.
