As a user of a library, I don't really care how it works. Under the hood it can be arbitrarily complex or simple, and please feel free to change the implementation weekly for all I care. I care very deeply about my own components, when they render, what causes them to re-render, and that I can control and reason about when they re-render. Also, stability of API (in number of years) is way more important than new whiz-bang features.
