I could see it making sense. If you needed to iterate over thousands of elements, that's a fair amount of headroom /time spent on HTTP connection building for what is probably a simple operation. In particular, being able to POST a large collection in a batch seems useful.
There's lots of Java development that deals with money movement that is suspect. All languages and frameworks are just tools. It depends on how you use them. Compilers are no guarantee for correctness if how you're modeling types is improper.
