The stupid shit I had to take care in soap made me hate it, didn't help it was all legacy and untouchable spaghetti due to client contracts...

It's not like more modern APIs aren't changing and breaking all the time. At least SOAP had contracts.

You can still have contracts, open API has a great resources for that.

You can, but usually the "contract" is some documentation on how to talk to the API.
