Yeah, it's designed for discoverable APIs on the open internet, why use it for internal communication I have no idea. All the time I've wasted making apps slower and worse, and arguing over it, just because it's the "correct" RESTful way, and creating and maintaining documentation, when there's only one single client, and it's also managed in the same team. It just becomes a line drawn in the code in a random place where everything becomes more difficult, dogmatic and impractical.
