If it's not the Sallet, what are you doing with your life? Get a grip.

Great Bascinet should have been an option, though. Solid choice.

And then other businesses that have "too good" numbers buy those failing businesses and let them go bankrupt to use as larger write-offs and get tax rebates.

Ah, yes, the things that are extremely valuable as long as you don't account for externalities.

This looks interesting, but I don't particularly want another client app for this when we can "just use curl" and have that in files (already very git-friendly)?

This will not help many, but I've found a good way that helps me and my team, since we're all in VSCode most of the time anyway. The extension "REST client" lets us write HTTP calls directly in a file and run them from there, with some basic variables and support for different kinds of authentication scheme and environment variables. It has replaced POSTman and Bruno for us: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=humao.rest-client

If you're not already using a vscode based IDE this won't help you at all, sure. But, if you are - this lets you write up sequences of requests in a (still manual, but quite quick) file to test APIs and play with them. Highly recommended!

Sharks aren't mindless chomping machines.

Cthulhu might be problematic, though.
