> The average GraphQL API is definitely in better shape than the average REST API

Totally agree.

GraphQL tooling is generally just better. It enforces a Schema first workflow and thus more emphasis on conventions and design.

OpenAPI tends to be an after thought with teams building REST APIs. Swagger started out as a way to add docs and generate SDKs.

That was exactly my motivation for building openapi-stack. GraphQL-like tooling, but for teams using REST.
