Great question. In fact, that question has more to do with “architecture” than most of my post.
The primary reason we went with Apollo is that it’s flexibility-minded and well-documented, making it easier for new engineers to work with. If everything was ideal, we’d use Relay. Relay’s patterns are better (IMO) but it can be confusing for new folks to use it idiomatically. So, it’s primarily a dev-experience consideration for us.
