Third, this creates Resumeable Upload semantics. We can implement the 
beautiful dream that Austin Wright proposed in 2019:

    https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-http-wg/2019JulSep/0066.html

To resume an upload, the client simply PUTs the remaining "range" of the 
file.

We get this ability for free, by just defining the semantics of a Range 
Request on a PUT. These are basic HTTP features that just need to be 
combined together.
