Jeeze, you mean I gotta do work!?!
The screenshot wouldn't tell much, anyway. The little red number isn't there, so a screenshot won't show it.

It would only do that if it were a cobra (Cleo's snake). If it were a rattlesnake, it would be Calliope's.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Even before everyone got fascinated with REST and APIs, I was fascinated with AJAX and used to make web pages that would carry on JSON conversations with the server. The basic structure of the message was {"error:"", "command1":"", {Data":""}... to be modified and expanded as needed both to and from the server. You would put a Command Pattern on Client or Server to determine what to do or where to route the request/response based on the command. "error" was universal! The best or only way to manage this was with a POST statement and it worked dandy as a Web Method in an ASPX page or even better in an ASHX page.
So my question is - why the elephant do we use Get, Delete, Put, Post? Why separate the verb from the message? Why do we use the shape of the message to determine the action associated with the message? We all know that we have to do a little work around to that pattern anyway every time you need to distinguish between getting one object of a type and getting all objects of that type. It just seems such a silly way to manage a message transaction. Also, it really doesn't manage errors. It does not plan to send an error message or action from the server to client. The client just knows there was an error.
Can anyone explain why it is done this way other than just habit?

The only true rest as defined by the dissertation of Fielding has to be a GET request. Because POST requests are actually not unique URLs. I also use POST exclusively when building JSON services.

I gave a rest to REST very early and use only POST with similarly packed data to yours...

Probably just because those are the HTTP verbs I guess, and to try and make use of them. I know where you are coming from; Put vs Post is confusing. And generally when I do this sort of stuff, which isn't often, I use Get when you can get everything in the URL, and post when the inputs are a bit bigger.
I don't know whether that's proper REST or not, but seems to be common sense and it works. Purists might argue that a GET shouldn't be able to change state.

Well they certainly don't seem to have any objections, but I do agree we need a new verb - "crashed".
Well, I sure don't seem to be hearing any push back. Maybe the the objections are coming from the Business folks selling the API movement without knowing any details about it.
