> Likewise, for much larger more complex projects some of the benefits you can get out of GraphQL can warrant the use of it. But there is a massive gap in the middle where it just seems unnecessary.

I'd say it's optimized for a medium complexity API, in terms of types at least. If you don't know the types in advance, because the users can customize fields somehow, then you can't make a particularly useful GraphQL schema.

There is an underlying assumption that you will have runtime stable objects being queried/mutated.
