Yeah, a leaky abstraction with abstraction inversion on top of it! So within the actual payload there was a method identifier so you had sub-resource routing on top of the URL routing just so you could have middleware handling things on the payload instead of in the headers... So you had an application protocol (SOAP) on top of an application protocol (HTTP).
