This is likely untrue. Unless you fetch data only from one single database, so that you can perform an atomic transition, GraphQL cannot guarantee you to receive the data you want. Technically, a GraphQL server may combine data into a single return from different sources where locking is not possible.

I do! I find it odd that anyone would do anything else...

It is a lovely world when you can do this.

In microservices-driven-architrctures you often have to appeal to multiple services to service a request.
