I feel like you completely misinterpreted their comment. They replied to a comment saying that state should not be centralized. They said that if the state decentralized (as in held by individual child components) it's difficult to coordinate between sibling and parent/child components.

It seems like you're saying that it's easy to do UI with a centralized state, therefore agreeing with them whilst having the tone of disagreement.

The parent comment said: This approach is simple but does not scale and You need separation between components and data. That is garbage and is what I replied to.

I completely understand why JavaScript developers would fail to read this as such as most JavaScript developers are wholly incapable of programming, a forest for the trees problem.

But centralised state is "separation between components and data"

this is an universal way to do UI, in fact only javascript developers (out of curiosity, are you one?) would even argue against it, because "use the platform", vanila, simple... blabla, or you know, "incapable of programming" and thinking in terms of data flow as opposed to platform intricacies

		The worst part about working in JavaScript is the insecurity. Everybody likes to act like they know what they are doing, but very few people really do. So, for most people its entirely a game to remain employed when they probably aren't qualified to be there in the first place. Its like musical chairs where everybody hopes when the music stops its the next guy left standing. For the few people who do know what they are doing its an impossible situation. People simultaneously expect magic from you, because they know you can do it, but at the same bitch and cry about the output. They know they cannot write original code or extend somebody else's original solution so they demonize it out of self-preservation. When people are universally that insecure its convenient to hate on that one person who doesn't share that insecurity. That is why I switched careers. I have never seen a salary high enough to justify going back to that.
