If you use a cookie for an API, it will look like you don't know what you are doing. Also, there are extra rules around Cookies (expiration, length, etc.) that may bite you if you use them outside a browser context.

Ah, so there are other contexts (e.g. native mobile apps) that may be sharing the API, not just browser (web) apps. I think I get it. Thanks.
