   This previous middleware handler is also responsible for rejecting incoming
   requests that exceed allowed message sizes (such as big file uploads).
+  The [`RequestBodyBufferMiddleware`](#requestbodybuffermiddleware) used above

   If you use this middleware without buffering first, it will try to parse an
   empty (streaming) body and may thus assume an empty data structure.
