I kinda disagree here - I have no problem using smart lights, etc., as long as they're controlled by a non-cloud system like HomeAssistant. This just doesn't seem to be an option for more complex devices.
Agreed, "smart" isn't what matters, it's more connected and in control, with Internet optional, no proprietary app or weird protocol mandatory.

I'm not sure how an email service helps here...?
