Sharepoint Lists Graph API: Distinguish which columns are actually hidden in the view

Currently there is no way to to distinguish which columns are hidden in the view and which not. This creates a lot of manual overhead after retrieving the list, because all columns like ("Created", "Version", "Item Child Count", etc.). For instance a list with 4 columns created by myself results in a table after retrieving the list via Graph API with over 30 columns.  Would be nice to create a field which shows whether a columns is actually hidden or not.

    I agree, I want to dynamically read all the columns of a list without specifying them. I don't want to include these hidden metadata type columns. There doesn't seem to be a single field I can filter on.

    Edit: The isHidden field does not solve this issue since it does not change in the response if I hide a certain column in the UI
