Last project I used rest on we went through the hoops of trying to find a way to fetch related models, and select specific fields…

Did you considered JSON:API specification? It supports both features within REST architecture.

In my experience many issues with REST are caused by using an ad-hoc architecture, which can't support the features needed.
