I use GraphQL (postgraphile) for my admin backend crud. This allowed me to do some incredible fast development with only minimal customisation (couple of PostgreSQL functions). Anything outside the happy path is handled by a REST API. Maybe we shouldn't think in absolutes, eg: only use GraphQL. For the same reasons I use an ORM, and raw queries where it matters most. The cliché holds true: use the right tool for the job.
