This was a terrible idea...

specifically the https://www.example.com/arcgis/admin/security/psa/update?f=json request (with no payload/body) failed with a POST with the following JSON: {"status":"error","messages":["java.lang.NullPointerException"],"code":500}

That request is querying the existing Primary Site Administration (PSA) credentials.
