 // NOTE(augustoccesar)[2026-03-19]: The reason to build this manually instead of using the TryFrom for
 //  the worker::Request is because of how body is constructed.
 //  We were seeing body for DELETE requests not being proxied correctly. Because of that we are now
 //  doing the reconstruct manually to ensure the body is present.

-//  This is not ideal and would be great to keep trusting the `to_wasm` from the workers-rs,

-//  Main concern here is if we might be missing some of the other internal operations that are
-//  done during the conversion. But for our usecases, it seems to be working.
