> use of Hooks, which are well-known not to be the best solution to the problem of state management within React.

I swear the introduction of Hooks threw such a monkey wrench into the ecosystem. They're just powerful enough to seem like an okay thing to use 100% of the time...

I thought we all agreed that React's ultimate destination was obscurity while it quietly became the runtime target and developers just had to return dom structures as data from functions. But they got greedy, and didn't want to go down like that, and now we have a worse version of redux instead of building on top of react-redux.

Perhaps my perception is wrong, in which case apologies and I'm happy to learn and listen.
