If you're building a REST API you might as well follow the semantics of GET/PUT/POST/PATCH/DELETE. Overloading post requests may seem convenient and tidy but there is a spec for a reason.

If you prefer more of a one query or request to rule them all then GraphQL may align better to your preferences.
