The only true challenge here is the learning curve. Other than that there are no excuses.

Graphql works great in both MVPs and large production apps.

But then the question of should you spend the time on the curve..
Show me how to upload an image (not base64 string) in GQL.. My user wants an avatar. They also want to download a PDF.

When a PFD file doesn't exist for the user, whats the error look like?
In 3 words or less describe the error for a missing PDF in graphQL
In REST.. it's "you get 404"
