As far as I can tell, useEffectEvent is just the useEvent hook but renamed to reduce scope. useEvent was originally going to provide performance optimizations when creating event handlers in a function component and it was going to solve the issue of event handlers causing effects to re-fire[1].

Now it's just going to focus on the effect issue.
