Yes, exactly true if you see it from that angle.

From your angle, I guess one other alternative to GraphQL and REST would be RPC. ;)

It absolutely is. It is in fact, one of my preferred ways to design systems when doing it in tight coupling between backend and frontend. Such as in a micro-fronted-style vertical. It’s very effective when the needs of the frontend dictate the needs of the backend.
