Normal legacy react enterprise application.

Today I was trying to get it to temporarily shim in for development and consume the value of a redux store via merely putting a default in the reducer. Depending on that value, the application would present different state.

It failed to accomplish this and added a disgusting amount of defensive nonsense code in my saga, reducer and component to ensure the value was there. It took me a very short time to correct it but just watching it completely fail at this task was borderline absurd.

Thanks for the context! I feel the same way. When it fails it fails hard. This is why I'm extremely skeptical of any of the non-cli cloud solutions - as you observed, I think the failures compound and cascade if you don't stop them early, which requires a compelling interface and the ability to manually intervene very fast.
