lorentz1527011hOh yeah and also the "health check" means doing an expensive query that returns an unbounded amount of data and then discarding the data.

TeachMeCode525110hPretty innovative health check. We all must strive to return that much unnecessary data

My favourite pastime is finding incredibly cursed APIs in the dotnet standard library.
An endpoint called TryFailedCopyDocuments which is called unconditionally in the happy path, calls into a service to update session data, then separately checks whether the service is live which could only be false if the service died shortly after the previous call, then if it was live, does a separate blocking call into the service to copy some files, and if it wasn't, copies the files within the request handler thread.
