Much of the reasoning specified is invalid with Relay. For example, you can lock queries from the client to predefined queries on the server. While it may not be needed for your project, this is a downvote from me because I do think Graphql is a far superior means of querying than REST. I’ve personally dealt with cascading queries which make no sense, and declaring format on server, then constantly changing format ingestion on client, you might as well reinvent Graphql. Some of the innovations Relay+Graphql have are very good including lazy querying with a tie-in to Suspense are very impressive.
