If the verbosity bothers you, why not write a helper function for your codebase? Action creator functions originally served this role, and you can successfully create more complex "helper" functions for generating unique action type names, sets of action creators, or even reducers if you have a consistent use-case.
IMHO you want the tools you use (i.e. redux) to be flexible and powerful, and write helpers, etc, to increase your ease-of-use. Otherwise, as the OP said, you're unnecessarily restricting yourself and creating a more difficult future.
