Wasn't the whole point of GraphQL in mitigating this?

  Yeah, that's why you have only 100 requests* when you hover over an item instead of 800. (* allegedly, didn't verify it myself)

  No. Here is the thing, hypermedia is cacheable. React/Graphql not so much. Facebook is now just an application that runs in the browser. As a poor, small developer who doesn't want to hemorrhage money, I tend to want things to be more hypermedia and less app. It saves on complexity and bandwidth and costs.
