+The box uses the publication's first link to read the paper and its authors, publication year, venue, pages,

 If a GraphQL API stops aligning with the publisher's priorities, the publisher can bring it offline, while the consumer that still needs it can spin up their own GraphQL server that replicates and synchronises from the event source, preserving functionality without forcing the publisher to keep every interface alive forever.
