At Stripe, this was also framed as BLUF - bottom line up front.

Please do, that would be awesome.

How does this compare to hurl.dev?

Yep

If you're going to do a single request or a few requests in isolation, curl is the way to do.

If you wanna do a full fledged testing suite, might as well using a proper scripting language or a test framework.

Hurl hits the spot between those two for me.

The abstraction is provide better UX. Anyone will have to write stuff over telnet to provide chained requests, variables, assertions, etc. Once you do that, you basically get a reimplementation of hurl.

Because liking a cli is an individual preference and lots of dev, including me, would prefer it and find it useful.

I saw this comment and thought this exactly described what my $previous_company did. Then, I saw the username :-)

Yes, because most services haven't met the full scope of the RBI circular yet - sending pre-debit notification, self serve mandate revocation, etc
