Controlled Input is better controlled with ref= #27

This is an almost universally better way to handle input. Then preset values are set with defaultValue= rather than value=

Thanks for the feedback. Sorry it took me so long to circle back to issues on this repository.

I omitted refs simply to limit the number of concepts introduced at once. I don't think refs are "universally better" but circumstantially better.
