Indeed. Thats actually how my team's FE engineers called our API.

But once other teams started integrating -- we heard all kinds of feedback.

My thoughts afterward were simply that people under the time pressure to push features daily had different appetites for any friction in their workflow.

We considered the feedback from the larger team and intentionally added support for both REST & GraphQL in our next app. We wanted to support anyone that wanted some exposure to it without forcing anyone. And that had much better feedback from consumers.
