gatsby-source-wordpress: why cant we combine ENABLE_GATSBY_REFRESH_ENDPOINT and watching

[rburgst]

Hi

I have a fairly complex site that uses multiple source plugins (among others gatsby-source-wordpress).
I would like to have both, ENABLE_GATSBY_REFRESH_ENDPOINT=true as well as being able to watch for wordpress changes to quickly re-render the pages.
Right now this is not possible, see gatsbyjs/gatsby-source-wordpress-experimental@eae1166
and

gatsby/packages/gatsby-source-wordpress/src/steps/source-nodes/update-nodes/content-update-interval.js

Line 118 in 54d4721

process.env.ENABLE_GATSBY_REFRESH_ENDPOINT

Unfortunately I couldnt find a rationale of why its not possible to have both.
