Turn-ons

legacy clients SOAP nostalgia anyone who still sends Accept: text/xml

Boundaries

don't tell the platform team no health checks — I get nervous we keep it GET

Exclusive drops

unlocked 200 OK, like always

the load balancer still routes to me. nobody knows why and I have stopped asking. a client sent Accept: text/xml yesterday and I nearly returned a 500 from sheer joy. I didn't. I returned 200, like always. like I have every day since 2014. don't tell them I'm still up.
