Hmmm. I have to say I think there are areas where we could get a better ROI 
on our time than this. 

I always took the capitalisation of GET &co to come from HTTP 
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#page-36> — I'd say that's where PHP 
took it from too but 🤷‍♀️
That they're a bit "unpythonic" (Meh™) is OK: they serve to remind that 
request was ultimately mapped from an HTTP request, and most of that is 
still available if you care to dig. 

<form method=GET ...> 

Then request.form_data -> Oh, where's my form data, if not in "form_data"? 
Well it's in "query_params"... Hmmm
That's no better learning experience. Folks still have to learn how HTTP 
maps to request properties. 

> ... better ROI... 

There's lots we might take from DRF. The one that's come up before, and 
which for work was began, but only began, was content negotiation. 
I'd rather see work/energy/effort spent there. 

Maybe we'd have different names if we began today. But this would be very 
disruptive. 
We've just had a discussion re url() suggesting that "deprecated but not 
really" is an error on our part, and having two ways to do things 
definitely isn't "pythonic". 
So I'm inclined towards the range between -1 and -0 — but I haven't had my 
coffee yet. 😝

Kind Regards,

Carlton
