Honestly I’m amazed that you managed to find a closer for this argument. And it works. I was _firmly_ of the “204 instead of 404” camp, but I find the “swap between static and dynamic serving” quite compelling.

It’s worth being redundantly explicit that this does not extend to all cases. There are cases where a 204 is warranted. But I’m roughly convinced that it may not be as ubiquitous as I thought. Very rad.
