It's really a question of what stack gets the responsibility for organizing an operation. If it's the front-end then yes, GraphQL is the proper choice. But I've found it places unnecessary burden on front-end, and extra work on the service that would otherwise be better spent in other areas. Allowing front-end engineers to work on REST API is the obvious solution. Breaking down walls and instilling confidence in our engineers is key to success, IMO. Nice article.
