Can the CEI Pattern Be Applied to Other Security Vulnerabilities besides Reentrancy?

Yes, the Checks-Effects-Interactions pattern is a general principle for robust smart contract design, not just reentrancy prevention. By prioritizing checks and state changes before external interactions, it helps prevent other issues like inconsistent state due to failed external calls or unexpected behavior from untrusted contracts.

It promotes a clear separation of concerns, making code easier to audit and reason about.
