Not all hooks are implemented in terms of reducers. `useMemo`, `useCallback`, `useRef` for example are not based on reducers, (or effects). Obviously the effect hooks are based on effects not reducers, and some like ` useDeferredValue` are based on both.

But you certainly are correct that useState is reducer based. I'm pretty sure one is only avoiding rerender via using multiple `useState` if they don't implement the reducer in a way where it returns the original object when there was no net change. If you are able to implement the such that it only returns a new object when there really is a change, then a single useReducer call is strictly more efficient than multiple useStates. (This might require more complicated code, as returning a new object every time is often the easy way to implement reducers.)
