Public/external setter functions or any others that emit events to indicate the newly set values can use the function parameters (from memory/calldata) or their cached local versions as emit arguments instead of the state variables that were just written to because SLOADs cost 2100/100 gas depending on cold/warm reads from Berlin upgrade onwards.
