…that's the best way to prevent breakage. Like the W3C says: Cool URIs don't change . Which means this isn't much of a problem in the wild and even if it was, hypermedia APIs would still have big holes with direct links break.
Enabling discoverability
Good API docs explain what all the possible attributes of a resource are. They explain the possible values of those attributes. The options available and so forth. Thinking that we can meaningfully derive …

The benefits of decentralized addressing and routing via URIs, he argues, keep administrators' decisions (and mistakes) from having a peripheral impact, so "the damage is limited to that person's URI space."

If our code sees a ‘ platformintegration:' URI, it processes it itself, and leaves all other URIs to load normally. Let's look at some details.
If you take a look at the platform_integration.js snippet, you'll notice the following line:
