Clearer errors for invalid API requests
Bad input now returns a 400 with a specific message instead of a generic server error.

When a request to the public API has invalid input, such as a malformed field, you now get a 400 response with a message describing exactly what was wrong. Previously these cases returned a generic 500 error, which looked like a platform fault and could prompt unnecessary retries.
