I don’t think that’s particularly amusing or a “disconnect.” From what I can tell, the entire point of GraphQL at Facebook was to expose an interface that looks like a graph database but is in fact able to load data from any number of different underlying data stores (without the query developer needing to know about that part).

To me, the best part about graphql is subscriptions over websockets.
