+## Rationale
+
+### Why allow both `POST` and `GET` HTTP verb?
+
+In AEP-2026, only the `GET` verb was allowed, originally to ensure cacheability of the request. However, query parameters along to specify a large number of IDs can face practical limitations, such as maximum URL length in a given browser.
+
+As such, `POST` is accepted as an alternative method. Although the IETF is working on a `QUERY` HTTP method, this is not generally implemented in API gateways, and therefore `POST` acts as more practical alternative.
