I felt that way about light automation in my house. Spent quite a bit on hardware to realize the light switch as you enter a room makes the most sense.
I feel like this is the journey of all automation enthusiasts. We start with a giant dream plan and then reel it into reality. Don’t automate everything…just the stuff that makes sense for you. Not that I don’t appreciate the dedication involved in complex automation, but our family favorites are the simple ones like opening curtains at sunrise, or dimly turning on the kitchen lights when we walk in for a late night snack. Small things that take away mundane tasks.
