APIs are read by machines to provide services to people; like delivering notifications about flood risk, or bringing mail to your doorstep; I do not want to take a part of a world where software is created by machines, for the benefit of machines. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Agreed, an API can be used by a machine, but it can also be used by a human, especially in the context of the current OGC API efforts with more focus of being "of the Web" (read HTML support).

We know HTML support is just recommended if I?m not wrong and given mostly for web search engines. Wrt human factor of the development: I like an human-centric usage of the AI aiming at ?improving the quality of the software I can produce. I know this is an hot and debatable subject (intentionally used I) but I feel to be humble that I can learn faster to write better code. That?s how I can read the first half and the most relevant for me, By Humans. The second half is less indeed IMHO.
