I think you are correct here. I'm a little puzzled as to how I didn't think this through better at any point, because this is how I often structure similar apps, but overall I think your method makes more sense. I will probably make the simplifications you suggested and then edit this or write a follow-up detailing the reasoning. I think the only real reason I ever started using hooks this way would be because I learned them just by using them, so I guess it just made sense when I was first building apps with hooks, and it stuck with me without me ever really thinking about it.
