It's also heating the ceiling, which will reduce the efficiency further.

It's a straightforward issue of separation of concerns, there are some occasions where you want heating and lighting always tied together, but they are niche. Almost everywhere in the world you have large periods of the day or year when you want lighting without heat.

I use a desk lamp so It's really close to me and I get both the light and heat and I swap the bulb out for an LED during summer.

Ah, I see, that’s a good idea.
