Redux became a thing because of Dan Abromov's impressive tutoring and documenting skills early on and due to acemarke being a good leader after he left.
It's a nice pattern but in an artistic sense.
Changing UI state 10 years back:
state.totals = 100;
Changing state today:
1. Call an action creator
2. Dispatch an action to the reducer
3. Switch by action type
4. Apply action on state
5. Return new state
So imho the problems start right at the bottom - the extreme verbosity and the redundancy.
