Description
There is this notion of "internal types" in the graphql spec: They are mentioned the first time in "Result Coercion" section of [Scalars](https://graphql.github.io/graphql-spec/draft/#sec-Scalars).
It is never explicitly stated how these internal types relate to the "external/visible" types of GraphQL and how they relate to the serialization.
For example:
We have the Float scalar type of GraphQL and also an internal type of Float which is different, which is then maybe serialized to String.
