Workers randomly throwing 502 "bad gateway" responses while developing locally with `--remote`

There are so many seemingly random errors thrown by workers while developing locally that the experience can be a drag (I've raised most of these in previous threads here.)

Today, I've started getting 502s every now and then. When this happens, I have no choice but to restart the Worker and then the exact same request succeeds.

In case it's relevant, I'm developing with the 
--remote
 flag for reasons that are outside this topic.

Error on remote worker: ParseError: Received a malformed response from the API

      }
    ],
    location: undefined,
    kind: 'error'
  }


Nothing in my app throws this error explicitly or outputs HTML, so I assume this response is coming directly from CF.

Any thoughts here? Thank you.
