if you have another question, please create a question vs posting a comment. Although IMO - you shouldn't ever use getServerSideProps

I'm failing to understand the purpose of getting external data through the hook useComponentProps then. Most front-end developers use Storybook, and even if you pass in props from storybook arg (data) that came from a Sitecore LayoutData json response, the hook fails and breaks the component.

Thanks @RichardSeal, your suggestion to abandon the getServerSideProps approach was definitely the way to move forward. It's unfortunate that the Sitecore docs don't make any mention of the rendering method distinction when they talk about using that for component level data fetching. They suggest "just do this and it will work" without context. Even the Sitecore support person we were in contact with basically said "just do this and it will work". Very frustrating. Thanks again for your guidance.
