Getting into this analogy (btw I ride Cannondaleš²)āI don't see REST as a general concept but more like a blueprint to built a bike with certain properties, let's say it is a blueprint for a CX bike ā good all rounder but it will never be a road, TT or mountain bike, no matter what stem or crankset you slap on it.
And this is what I was pointing out: With REST you get the blueprint how to build a certain type of bike. With GraphQL, gRPC you get the actual bike.
So it takes understanding of the blueprint and mechanical engineering to build the CX bike with REST. And most people are lazy (or can't be bothered) to go through all of this.
And yes, being all-rounders, I think CX bikes are superior to the other bikesš
