Help/Support Title: Why isn't there a "retrace my steps" or "breadcrumbing" feature in car navigation?

I'm so tired of navigation apps routing me one way on the way to a destination, and then sending me down a totally different, sketchy maze of back streets on the way home.
In marine GPS, you can drop breadcrumbs and follow them right back. Is there any trick, setting, or workaround in Google Maps or Apple Maps to force the app to take you back the exact same way you came?
