simplify redux with generic action & reducer

In React-Redux project, people usually create multiple actions & reducers for each connected component. However, this creates a lot of code for simple data updates.

Is it a good practice to use a single generic action & reducer to encapsulate all data changes, in order to simplify and fasten app development.

What would be the disadvantages or performance loss using this method. Because I see no significant tradeoff, and it makes development much easier, and we can put all of them in a single file! Example of such architecture:

// Say we're in user.js, User page

// state
var initialState = {};

// generic action --> we only need to write ONE DISPATCHER
function setState(obj){
    Store.dispatch({ type: 'SET_USER', data: obj });
}

// generic reducer --> we only need to write ONE ACTION REDUCER
function userReducer = function(state = initialState, action){
    switch (action.type) {
        case 'SET_USER': return { ...state, ...action.data };
        default: return state;
    }
};

// define component
var User = React.createClass({
    render: function(){
        // Here's the magic...
        // We can just call the generic setState() to update any data.
        // No need to create separate dispatchers and reducers, 
        // thus greatly simplifying and fasten app development.
        return [
            <div onClick={() => setState({ someField: 1 })}/>,
            <div onClick={() => setState({ someOtherField: 2, randomField: 3 })}/>,
            <div onClick={() => setState({ orJustAnything: [1,2,3] })}/>
        ]
    }
});

// register component for data update
function mapStateToProps(state){
    return { ...state.user };
}

export default connect(mapStateToProps)(User);
