We're well past that. I would probably care more if the original idea behind REST solved a real problem, but it doesn't. It's architecture astronaut stuff.
If REST is just about using HTTP verbs and status codes smarter, and sending the payload in JSON, I'm good to leave it at that. It's useful.
Besides, the original definition is not reflective of real world needs - which is why it’s morphed to something else.
