What part doesn't make sense? I was saying that GraphQL is over-engineered solution for simple use cases. REST do have a big problem of over-fetching and under-fetching. You can't just solve it by returning only specific attributes. I guess you haven't worked at the Enterprise level application that's why you don't understand the use cases where GraphQL is necessary

If you want an argument then don't start by assuming what i do and do not know.

Second, I was referring to the article that misrepresents what a REST API is.
