Response models aren't just for documentation - they filter out sensitive fields automatically. Define what goes out, and Pydantic handles the rest.

Pagination: Don't Return Everything
Returning 10,000 records in one response? Please don't. Implement pagination with limit and offset (or better, cursor-based). Your database and clients will be happier.
Security Headers Matter
Add security headers to your responses: X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, Content-Security-Policy. Small effort, big security improvement.
