I guess because it threw me.
In most cases, I've previously checked isPost, now is('post'). In other
places, I would check for data, but that's not good practice now, because
GET data is also on the request.
Also, when I see method="post" on the form element, and POST on the HTTP
call, then I would expect the method on the request to also be post. If
method() is going to report PUT, then I would expect that the actual form
method, and HTTP verb would also be PUT. After all, that's convention (over
configuration, or code obfuscation).
