Is there a particular reason for this becoming a cultural norm?

My country (NZ) has the opposite culture. It would be really weird to hear people talk with that much hyperbole.

Not completely, we still have a few active cases as far as I'm aware.

We also basically shut down our borders, which I don't think is that feasible for a lot of other countries.

Yeah, GraphQL seems like a cool piece of tech that's overkill for 90% of the places it's used.

I'm a bit confused as to how it's become so popular for normal development when it seems to have a lot more boilerplate and setup than a simple REST API.
