My hottest take might be that "state management" isn't a real class of either problem or solutions. Instead, it seems to cover a confusion of:

- intra-component data propagation
- a bad way to reinvent events and broadcast channels
- a missing data synchronization layer

Each of these have distinct solutions, and "state management" tools do none of them credibly.
