Not a bug. If you [reverse engineer our Discourse API](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-reverse-engineer-the-discourse-api/20576) then you can find that we use extensionless endpoints in many places. If you add the `Accept: application/json` header in your requests then we will treat both `/directory_items` and `/directory_items.json` endpoints in same manner.
