useFormState seems to be working as expected but i'm not seeing any change to my deconstructed pending flag.

Form -> https://gist.github.com/james0r/4d44ee352128b91a880808a19fb235f9
Action -> https://gist.github.com/james0r/0099e2da6b756d70062a8d4c50257738

useFormStatus returns the status for a specific <form>, so it must be defined as a child of the <form> element.

FYI I did see that but I thought they were optionally breaking it out into its own component. My bad.
@Gray-tailed Tattler Perfect! Working now. Thx!
