Research direction

Start with the traceback and the minimal Python example in the issue, paying attention to the local v4/graphql.py entry point and the graphene import chain. Check whether the reported behavior can be reproduced in the stated Python 3.9.7 environment; done means identifying whether this is a Graphene bug or an issue specific to the example's module layout.
