I think this is a cop-out. Someone in the 1990s could have written the same thing about collections, or dictionaries, but we eventually came up with good-enough compromises that Python, Ruby, and Javascript all basically do the same thing. They don't implement literally every case, but they are good enough for "small" data, where the definition of "small" has grown to be quite large by human standards.
I think the real problem is syntax. Someone needs to come up with a textual graph literal that fits in source code, and it'll be good enough for the small type. Switch to a custom ubergraph when you exceed, idk, ten million entries.
