What does this offer that GraphQL does not?

With bebel there is no predefined scheme, the design pattern is completely 
non-binding. The protocol is functional oriented and can be deployed for 
scientific computing. Bebel is used by JNTP server that distribute usenet 
:

For example, you can use bebel to compute :
["sum", [a, b, c, ...]] => a + b + c...
["square", a] => a^2
So you can combine the two expressions :
["square", ["sum", [3, 5, 2]]] => ["square", 10] => 100

Still feels limiting for a client. If I want an image or XML returned for example, 
what would that look like? For the image would I be forced
to encode it in base64?

Is this always an http POST/Response transaction?

Can I use a url equivalent?

http://localhost/sum?p=3,5,2

Yes you can map queries and responses.
This picture upload with a bebel query : 
<http://news2.nemoweb.net/jntp?YRs_BUHvaPR_0phwjuNJiqo8Yuc@jntp/Data.Media:1.>
This image can also be downloaded via the get method :
http://news2.nemoweb.net/jntp/?YRs_BUHvaPR_0phwjuNJiqo8Yuc@jntp/Data.Media:1
So, you can choose mime-type.
If you are interested, I can add an example in the module or in the doc.

Yes you can add a route if necessary.

Right. Since I can already define routes, I'm having trouble seeing the value add of this library.

More examples could only help.

Sorry, my cancel did not propagate well :
