Yes, I understood your intention wasn't to call me out on it. I thought you hadn't listened to the podcast because there are some who don't like listening to podcasts 😅. After all, that was my original intention behind writing this article, the tips given in that podcast and topics discussed were too good to not be shared. I didn't intend to be arrogant about what I wrote. It is, after all, something I repeated from a different source.
Anyways, I listened to the podcast again carefully and I feel what I wrote was somewhat too general. Although what I wrote is close to what Chris said, there are some words I failed to remember and omitted them. I'll rephrase those 3 points to better reflect what Chris meant when he recommended using Vuex in those situations.
From listening to the episode again, I think the main reason he recommended using Vuex instead of using props and event bus in those situations is that with Vuex, it's easy to keep track of changes in the state since Vue DevTools provides a way to trace the changes in the state.
I agree that using global variables is bad, and using global state is more so. I think even if Vuex is okay to use in a situation, it will be better to only have the components that require the Vuex state to access it.
I am grateful you pointed this out. Otherwise, I wouldn't have paid close attention to this. Listening to the podcast again and reading your comments made me realize I should be careful not to use Vuex just because it looks like a good situation to use it.
