Double states for the same state variable seems workaround to me

Now local state is only used when shouldBreakGrouping && isScreenReaderActive (iOS + VoiceOver).


if (prevIsTaskCompletedFromOnyx !== isTaskCompletedFromOnyx) {
setPrevIsTaskCompletedFromOnyx(isTaskCompletedFromOnyx);
setIsTaskCompleted(isTaskCompletedFromOnyx);

This local state update logic now runs on every platform, not just iOS.
If completeTask/reopenTask ever fails or is queued offline and the underlying Onyx state doesn't flip, the local state might read "checked" briefly until the next re-render syncs back. Please verify this case.
And consider scoping this to shouldBreakGrouping only.

Scoped. setLocalIsTaskCompleted is only called on iOS + VoiceOver. On all other platforms, isTaskCompleted resolves directly to the Onyx value.
