JavaScript REST APIs with Express Refactoring and Modularizing a REST API Refactor with Express Middleware

Use middleware to abstract away the try/catch block to DRY the code in rest API - but why not do it on delete and post?

In the video refactor with express middleware the teacher tells us to do it on all the functions, but when I downloaded it to compare it with my code she didn't abstract away the try/catch on delete and post.
