Startups don't know what they need when just getting started. When you have a Graphql api you can spin up any number of other tools not just "client side apps", it can connect to a mobile app, cli, any number of other tools and you don't need to go back to the drawing board to make it happen. I've been using Redwood for quite a while and on my app I just spun up a public api with api keys and still maintain my private api specifically for internal app use in less than a day. When I started my project I didn't know I would need that.
