Keeping it in line with the spirit of the Web. So that if you decide to move an API elsewhere users of the old API won't get a bunch of 404 errors. See also:

If I do a POST using AC to a http://example.com/form.cgi and the initial OPTIONS request forwards to http://example.org/pub/form.cgi, does that mean that the POST goes directly to the second URI? That seems like a bad idea to me since it makes cross-site requests behave very different from same-site requests, rather than just differing in authorization.
