You sound like a SOAP apologist. REST succeeded precisely because it was approachable by the cowboy coder.

Not at all, and I did not mention SOAP. Most APIs on the web are not really RESTful, and the problem with the cowboy coder approach is that they appear productive but create tons of technical busy work that can't easily be automated.
