Deleting things happens all the time though.

Yeah sure you can make it work with anything if you spend the extra effort but the ownership really isn't as defined as in REST.

Is there code which have fuzzy or no ownership? Are there changes which affect other teams? Suddenly those became much harder questions to answer.

Actually deleting happens rather rarely compared to adding.

Its much easier to trace and debug what teams are using GQL fields than REST. What if one team is piggy backing on another teams exising rest endpoint and you dont know? same problem that would require some analysis of all code calling and endpoint to determine if a field is safe to delete. GQL makes this much simpler than REST.

On one side you need to check which folder you are in, on the other side you need to do a static analysis of the whole current and past apps.

I know there's some diverging opinions here but there's one which sounds definitely easier than the other.

As for deletes, I work in a company with a good hundred devs so that happens weekly at least.
