(1) Generally speaking, it's good to limit the number of ways to do the same 
thing so that there's less to remember as the user
(2) In this specific case, it can actually be confusing/ambiguous.
    That is, does this expect a single `Resource` object: `{ "name" : "cpus", 
... }`, or
    does it expect a `Credentials`-like object where we specify something like: 
`{ "resources": { "name" : "cpus", ... }, { "name" : "disk", ... }, ... }`?
    (I know now that it does the first one, but at first glance I actually 
thought it does the second)
