Comment(by rmccue):

 To reiterate what Mark said, the reason doesn't matter, and RFC 2616 (HTTP
 1.1) notes this (section 6.1.1:

 > The Status-Code is intended for use by automata and the Reason-Phrase is
 intended for the human user. The client is not required to examine or
 display the Reason-Phrase.

 [...]

 > The individual values of the numeric status codes defined for HTTP/1.1,
 and an example set of corresponding Reason-Phrase's, are presented below.
 '''The reason phrases listed here are only recommendations -- they MAY be
 replaced by local equivalents without affecting the protocol.'''

 (Emphasis mine)

 I won't close this, as I feel it's not my place to do so in this case.
