Tl;DR

defaultMethodOptions should exclude options method by default or at least have an option to do that.

LambdaRestApi has defaultMethodOption, when it is specified, it gets applied to all methods for given api resource. which is awesome but doesn't work when CORS is involved.

Take this simple example,
where I want all the methods to require x-api-key api key so I specify

defaultMethodOption: {
  apiKeyRequired: true
}

On top of this I also want CORS to be enabled on all api resources so in LambdaRestApi I also specify this

defaultCorsPreflightOptions : {
  ... cors options 
} 

Because of defaultCorsPreflightOptions an additional method will be created for all my resources to support CORS but because defaultMethodOption applies on all methods, options will also have apiKeyRequired , which it shouldn't.
