That's the purpose of the in-app request caching layer. Another way to see it is that you do have state in a separate store, it's just that you have one piece of state for each resource that can be requested. So it's not that all the components are requesting the /users resource, it's more that all the components a requesting the value of the /users store, and the /users store fetches the data once and determines whether the data is loading, present, needs to be updated, etc.
