> Even non Battery electric trains can speed up or slow down at different points

I want this for everything with a battery, it’s own internal thermal mass or things I don’t need to complete as quickly as possible.

E.g.: laptop, washing machine (clothes or dishes), dryer, refrigerator, hot water heater, hvac, etc.

It just seems so underdeveloped on the consumer side.

Hot water heaters are the the low hanging fruit here. Australian water heaters have been using overnight coal power for decades with very basic systems.
