Out of curiosity, what do you mean by "converting completely to hooks" and "not being the right move"?

If you mean "sticking with `connect` for Redux usage in components", we _do_ recommend the hooks API as the default - it's a lot easier to learn and use, especially with TypeScript. Yes, that does mean you don't get the "auto-optimization of re-rendering when parents re-render" that `connect` gives you, but you can get the same result by wrapping your own components in `React.memo()` as needed (which is actually what `connect` uses internally.)
