Hmm? What do you mean @melmccann ?

I added this just to keep in line with OpenAPI, so stubs can be generated from swagger.yaml without error.
You can have a requestBody for a DELETE but for some reason OpenApi doesn't allow it.
OAI/OpenAPI-Specification#1801
You can close this issue if you feel it is their problem not ours @KtorZ

Well, request bodies on DELETE request is actually not forbidden by the RFC 7231 which specifies the HTTP/1.1 protocol. The only verb that for which a request body is strictly forbidden is HEAD.

It also seems that the OpenAPI specifications eventually changed their own design to allow this: OAI/OpenAPI-Specification#2117
