My best guess is that CloudFlare wrote this to prevent folks from serving big binary files like photo, music, or video and this txt file case was an unintended condition that happens to work to CloudFlare's advantage. text/plain t

Are you intending to say that there is a transitive property of rhyming? And that if that if A does not rhyme with B then there may not exist a word C that rhymes with both A and B? If so, your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subs
