You'll be redirected to the error.vue, click on the reload button then a blank page should appear

Describe the bug

Hi 😃 , there's is a strange bug concerning clearError or createError.

This might be linked to #14805 ?

Navigating to /test redirect the user to an error page. I'd like to reload the page using clearError with a redirect option however the user is not being redirected to the error page and the render fails since there's a throw in Test.vue.

Additional context

this issue might need a better title

FWIW, vue-router won't redirect to the same page, and even though the error page was handling it, the route was still /test - so you don't need to redirect. But that's not the issue.

The issue is that on client-side, we don't show a full screen error page but instead leave it to the user to handle errors with error boundaries, hooks, etc. If you want the full screen error page on client-side, then set fatal: true within your createError and you should be good to go.
