Comment:

 Thanks for the ticket @SirLouen.

 As @mindctrl mentions, this is intentional. It's a design decision for the
 REST API to reject invalid values instead of silently ignoring them.

 > and the possibility that there could be a programmatic search,

 The `args` definition for the route can be used to determine what types
 and subtypes are supported programatically.
