When the browser makes an AJAX request it sends a 'pre-flight' with the 
OPTIONS method. The OPTIONS method is used by the browser to explore if 
the method trying to use is allowed by the server and avoid sending a 
payload that will get rejected. So the pre-flight is some kind of 
soft-rejection.
