But you are correct, although I have used representational state through the request in this case I'm just talking about using a message bus Vs using a blocking http call.

Additional annoyance, using inappropriate tech means that we can't even do scaling to handle spikes. Having a Kafka rebalance because traffic is a little higher so I need to increase the number of listeners and cause an outage when I actually need more throughput makes me sad.
