Why use the Publish/Subscribe pattern vs. event listeners?

Hi all, I was just wondering why the Shopify team is effectively rolling their own solution to events when dispatchEvent() and addEventListener() are so widely used and supported?

Hey Cfxd,
Yep, we should have used dispatchEvent and addEventListener here. Thanks for nudging us in the correct direction.

Bumping this. I'd be happy to write a PR if it will get attention!
