Shouldn't a state change should be purely event driven, and not dispatch its own events as side effect? That avoids reetrancy and is an easy rule to adopt...? Or am I misunderstanding the issue?

You're right about that, but that wasn't common practice at the time. We learned about side-effects from Elm and Flux.
