Comment:

 A null value basically just removes that value from the array and doing so
 defeats the entire purpose of why it was put there in the first place.

 The correct solution will be to test for POST if there isn't a body and
 set it. If there is a body, then set it.

 The reason it was put there was become some servers require it to be
 there. So while it works for yours, it will not work for another server. A
 compromise or filter has to be made in order to ensure that it continues
 to work or allow for it to be made to work based on configurations.
