How often do you really write REST clients in the grand scheme of things? Are you sure you aren't optimizing for the 5%?

Yes I'm sure. The team that I joined surprisingly writes very little logic.

In order to implement a JSON GET and POST to one endpoint, they had to write 186 lines of code and unit tests so something is clearly wrong!

Even just being smarter on manually writing the client will save us a lot of time.
