yeah, just the usual old suspects of bad DX coloring, monad stacks / transformers, etc. nightmares?!

Things were going well for a bit making a few components. Then I wanted to fetch data on a route

everything is subjective - i have better flow with static typing (maybe with inference) than w/out :-
