Don't worry, I'm not espousing lifecycles as a panacea or solution for the modern programmer, I just wanted to share that experience with lifecycle methods meant that I was less tripped up by the pitfalls of react lifecycles.
Less so than I've been tripped up by react hooks certainly so it's been a surprise that many here are describing them as being much easier and simpler than classes.
Classes had limits and some pitfalls but it's been frustrating that lifecycle methods have been retired and deprecated because sometimes they felt like the natural place to do something.
