side note I've read up on pure ECS a bunch and watched the blizzard GDC talk about it and I still don't really get the point of it vs having components with logic and data together

We used this at Petroglyph and it was good for creating many RTS unit types from separate parts. But I think this works best when the entities are all kinda similar (like in an RTS where units are basically things that move to a location and then do an action).

right but I get this just fine with normal components

What is "normal" vs "pure," can you link to the talks in question?

But for the types of games I typically make, where each enemy might move and behave completely differently from one another, the component system slows you down...at least it slows me down. By a lot.

are you talking about ECS or just EC
