Last time I used GraphQL the front-end devs ended up writing a single query to hydrate the entire data model in one pass, so they could be sure the data was present for all the components. We spent a month on the backend enabling GraphQL and we could have saved that and written a single "api/getAllTehData" REST endpoint in about half an hour. I'm looking at Shopify API at the moment, and there's a notification that they're deprecating their REST API and moving it all to GraphQL. I hope it's a joke. But I suspect not.
