Headers with dots in the key are removed when I make a fetch request from a worker

I'm trying to call an API that requires me to put 4 specific headers in the request with a dot in in the name I correctly add the headers When I run it locally everything works. Then I deploy and it gives an error. I tried sending the requests to requestbin and I notice some of my headers are gone Request from worker running locally:

Only the Accept and the X-Source headers which I set manually are present. All my WM_ prefixed headers are gone.
I tested this with all kinds of variations, and only the headers with a "." in the name get removed. Dashes, underscores, all work. I tried creating my headers like an object. I tried making a new Header() and appending them 1 by one and it doesn't change anything. Any fix around this?

Nevermind, seems it's not a worker thing but a cloudflare thing, googling that specific issue without "worker" gave me plenty of results
