Perhaps I should clarify context why it not I might not be making things 
"complicated" as you think.

This NGINX config relates to an SSL dev-site.  So I've got a buch of 
things I want to use the SSL site for, and laravel/lumen is just one of 
them, hence the desire (or rather need !)  to have it as a path rather 
than just make laravel/lumen "the" site.

Will consider it, but as menitoned above, making laravel "the" site is 
not appropriate for my context.
