Comment (by mikeill):

 I'm not sure if this is relevant so please forgive me if not. I'm using
 php 7.0 and WordPress 5.4 at the moment and noticed something interesting.

 When calling `wp_remote_post()` with the `POST` method, the `body` of the
 request needs to be `json_encode`d or fields are not properly transferred.

 When calling `wp_remote_post()` with the `GET` method, the `body` of the
 request seems to work either as an array *or* a json object, but when it
 is `json_encode`d, it returns the above mentioned warning.
