I was in Amsterdam walking down the street one night and saw a bike just fall into a canal. No one was around except my wife and I. So at least one ended up in the water because someone poorly positioned it against the railing.

I've been using openapi/swagger for generating my clients and honestly think it creates a mess of files and manually keeping clients up to date is not a huge task. I'm not sure that I buy into "your client libraries shou
