Why React useState with functional update form is needed?

State update is asynchronous in React. So it is possible that there would be old value in count when you’re updating it next time. Compare, for example, result of these two code samples:

function Counter({initialCount}) {
  const [count, setCount] = useState(initialCount);
  return (
    <>
      Count: {count}
      <button onClick={() => setCount(initialCount)}>Reset</button>
      <button onClick={() => {
        setCount(prevCount => prevCount + 1); 
        setCount(prevCount => prevCount + 1)}
      }>+</button>
    </>
  );
}

and

function Counter({initialCount}) {
  const [count, setCount] = useState(initialCount);
  return (
    <>
      Count: {count}
      <button onClick={() => setCount(initialCount)}>Reset</button>
      <button onClick={() => {
        setCount(count + 1); 
        setCount(count + 1)}
      }>+</button>
    </>
  );
}
