A lot of the RFCs are flavored by the lack of https and prevalence of forward proxies run by the ISPs to improve perceived speed and reduce their network loads.. Back in the day.
By my estimation, that's why they explicitly call out only the client and origin can know what a GET body means; proxies should forward as-is and ignore.
Those days of ISP forward http proxies are gone, but those semantics are still fine; the body means what the origin and client agree it means.

Why would I re-buy all the games I own?! The vast majority of people one-and-done games and movies. There are a handful they go back to, and that's it.
CHILDREN replay games cycling through them ad-infimum because their entire concept of time is like 3x less than we've been waiting for the next GTA.
And they don't have money! Adults are the majority of the market now.
Any other behavior from adults, who are seriously time constrained, is niche. And that's fine if someone wants to spend their adult time on earth replaying games, but let's be honest. It's niche.
It's way, way better than it was 15 years ago. Amazon and Amazon AU, Costco, etc. TradeMe for the cheaper stuff you don't want to wait for shipping from China.
But yeah the selection and availability is nowhere near the USA or even say.. Indonesia.
Yeah, hasn't it been "best practice" for a decade or more to treat JWT like a ticket and swap it for a cookie-based session ID in anything browser-like? Then you just do all the cookie session "best practices" to lock it down.
"Only I can save us". It's a classic tragedy and cautionary tale.
The idea Anthropic was going to speed run AI so they could control the usage and make it "safe" for humanity was never altruistic; it was a HUGE FUCKING RED FLAG.
Also the little sound bite about peak demand, Texas has enormous capacity during the summer as well; far, far exceeding demand. It makes total sense to be testing and connecting multi-GW consumers during these months.
