Comment:

 The reason phrase is for humans, and as such it can be anything we want it
 to be. We could serve 404 OH NO and it would be fine.

 > The Status-Code element is a 3-digit integer result code of the attempt
 to understand and satisfy the request. These codes are fully defined in
 section 10. The Reason-Phrase is intended to give a short textual
 description of the Status-Code. The Status-Code is intended for use by
 automata and the Reason-Phrase is intended for the human user. The client
 is not required to examine or display the Reason- Phrase.
