I think route_quad us similar to straight route. I don't know why they didn't just use straight route though

Route quad is used to create a closed quadrilateral route
Straight route can only lay down one straight rectangle, route quad can do up to 4 rectangles at 90 degree angles to each other

In general
GLayout is built on the gdsfactory framework In a specific application (analog layout)
Gdsfactory does photonics
