I was speaking of higher-level abstractions than that. For instance, do you have your API allow all possible arbitrary aggregations for your data or do you only special case the 3 or 4 that are pertinent to your business model?

Doing the former leads to basically reimplementing SQL in GraphQL. Doing the latter leads to functions like `resolve_month_over_month_profit_and_loss_segemented_by_sector`.

There can be a lot in-between here. You might end up with something like `Report(type: PROFIT_AND_LOSS, unit: MONTHLY, segment: SECTOR)`

Like every tool, there's a sweet spot where it really shines and others where it doesn't fit. If you need to have access to a bunch of disparate datasources it's really nice to have that layer of abstraction.
