Your suspicions are probably right. Care to share any specific problem you are currently facing?

  The most recent discussions have had to do with how to handle queries that return different results depending on whether the user making the query is authenticated; whether to use the same resolver or to instead require the frontend to use a different "whateverPublic" query if they know the user isn't authenticated. Another is what to do when subqueries yield errors. We're often faced with three choices there: whether to make the entire query return an error, or make the subquery return a friendly error, or make the subquery return null/empty. Finally, we're suspecting that in most cases where it might first appear we need a dataloader, maybe we don't if we change how the frontend queries, since the "+1" part of the "N+1" can often make its own group query to whatever repository we're using.

    If you aren't already, I strongly recommend using union types for query results with inline fragments in your queries themselves. This handles both your auth/unauth case as well as error handling. This pattern isn't discussed much in tutorials/docs, but has been absolutely essential for us.
