  1. Why would anyone EVER use redux? Because they aren’t aware of MUCH simpler ways to solve the same problems.

  2. What exactly did you show in the example please?

    – how redux dispatch is called -> OK, shown
    – how programming a reducer is used to modify a shared state (redux store) -> OK, shown

    But the most important thing is — where is the actual logic?
    Where is the functional programming you are talking about?

    I don’t see any functionality, just a way to store information into a shared state.
