There is. It is a conscious design decision. On small form factors where
there is not enough space to display a full URL anyway, this ensures
that at least the domain name is visible.

Title:
Full URL of page not shown unless user clicks on it
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
By default, the browser only shows the host name of the page. However,
the full URL is shown when clicking on it.
There's really no reason to do this, so why not show the entire URL
all the time (or at least as much of it as fits in the URL bar)

What I expected to happen:
URL should be visible entirely all the time (or at least as much as fits)
What happened instead:
Only host name of page is shown. Rest of URL is only shown after clicking
on it.
