How does concurrent mode help with mouse dragging? I went reading through the React docs on this and they only really talk about data fetching patterns. I'm not sure I understand how it would apply to mouse events.

Doesn’t it help with having only high priority ui updates on the main ui thread with everything else happening in the background? To get low latency ui updates that’s exactly what you want: move everything except the low latency work to different threads.
