A number 4. would be: Buy from an established lighting company that publishes compatibility tests. It may not have all the bells and whistles but focuses on doing one thing right, which is to switch a light. My Lutron’s have never needed a debug since install and I get all the convenience and forget about it.
I think a lot of people get into home automation to constantly tweak stuff. If that is what tickles them sure. For me, like anything automated, I want it to work in the background and provide some quality of life improvements and never have to think about it again.
