I also like how you can make your whole house change color with the lights during the day. Blue and bright at noon, red and dim in the evening.

Or how the lights dim when I turn on the TV. Or how the curtains can be opened by just yelling open the curtains. Node Red is super nice with Home Assistant, if you want to do something more complex with the automation.

Why are your lights on during the day?

Ummm to see something? It's winter and dark...

And who can forget the classic of only having terrible layout for windows as well

Natural light is not easy to get into my apartment

Bundle that with it being winter and dark and those lights need to be on
