This brings back memories. I once failed an interview because an interviewer asked me how a certain API could be implemented and I suggested that you could send a body with a GET request. My thinking at the time was that, even though unusual, Elasticsearch does this (2016: https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/16024#issuec...) and it might be easier to cache than POST but I could tell that the interviewer wasn't happy with my reponse.
Glad that a QUERY method will be provided instead, and I learnt my lesson about giving against-the-grain responses to interviewers.
