useEffect was a mistake

The only practical use I've had for useEffect is code that really only should execute once at startup. (In my case, initializing sqlite and syncing data from a server.) I'm sure it can do other things that are great, but I've never needed them. It feels strange to need a special hook for that.

I wish I could like this a hundred times. Pretty much every other 'use case ' is, it seems to me, not something you need this special hook for.
