Sure, yeah. But I would argue that DMs make more sense to be viewed by
default as a stream of back and forth messages vs a separate history
of sent and history of received. I would say it makes more sense to
offer it as one endpoint to be split client side rather than two
endpoints to be merged client side. Of course, the current situation
is they are split and I'm sure there is some historical reason for
that and I wouldn't expect it to be changed. But in terms of a new
endpoint specifically for retrieving a history of conversation with a
particular user I don't really see what the benefit would be of
serving it up split (to the consuming application).
