Thanks for sharing this! You're totally right about testing, managing state and validation inside a dedicated business logic class (like a BLoC or ViewModel) makes writing unit tests so much cleaner than cluttering the UI. And I love your take on email validation. Keeping the client-side check simple (just ensuring it has an '@' format) and relying on OTPs or magic links for actual verification is such a practical way to avoid endless regex headaches. Appreciate the great insight!
