Hi!
I'm curious why the occurrence/download/ endpoint has a different interface than the other occurrence endpoints (occurrence/search). I ask because I work on the R client rgbif, and it would be nice to provide the same exact interface to users whether they are getting JSON data or spinning up a download. However, the query interfaces are quite different. This isn't a big deal, as I can make both occurrence/download and occurrence/search endpoints as similar as possible for users despite them being different internally.
Thanks! Scott Chamberlain
