GraphQL API vs REST API discrepancy for organization packages

Body

I'm encountering a discrepancy between GitHub's REST API and GraphQL API when querying container packages. While I can retrieve packages via REST API successfully, the same data isn't accessible through GraphQL.

This returns complete information including container tags:

gh api -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" "/orgs/[ORGANIZATION]/packages/container/[PACKAGE-NAME]/versions?per_page=100&page=0"

But when trying to query with GraphQL, not all of the packages are shown in the results (I get back 6/30 so it is not related to the first 100 filter).

gh api graphql -f query='
query {
  organization(login: "[ORGANIZATION]") {
    packages(first: 100) {
      nodes {
        name
        packageType
      }
    }
  }
}'

Why would some packages be accessible with the REST API but not with GraphQL?
Could this be related to package visibility? In the results I do get back, I only see private containers. Most of our packages are internal (though there was 1 package that was private and still didn't appear in the result).
