I have to say stuff like this is why I'm not a big fan of the component approach to frontend dev. Reasoning about when and why something gets updated is not very intuitive.

The other thing that tends to happen is that components become god objects. People stuff all their business logic in there, and suddenly most files in the project have a tsx or jsx extension. It's winforms code behind all over again. "React is a library not a framework" starts sounding pretty hollow.

It's possible to not do this, so I can't strictly blame react for this - but it's happened in every react project I've seen.
