What about caching? I'm not sure I like my frontend libraries trying to solve caching when I could very easily get that incredibly simply for free with REST and browser or endpoint caching. I'm really hard pressed to find proper examples that describe auth, RBAC, UBAC, caching etc with GraphQL
When it first came about it seemed like a band-aid to try and get around poorly designed REST systems so backend engineers wouldn't have to deal with frontend devs asking for data and new endpoints. I dunno if it's matured enough past that. Not saying REST is perfect and lord knows enough companies abuse it but a lot of stuff is pretty solved with simple, well documented solutions online
