Yeah it's nice to be able to still access things via HTTP even if it just enqueues something. But I at the architectural level that's how I think of it. Hooks are great too, since you can use queues behind the scenes for those as well.

We might have something that puts an event to call a hook in a queue. Then the hook service reads that and makes a post request to the consumer.
