Most flickering mess is caused by throwing away half of the sine wave due to cheaping out on components and has nothing to do with efficiency.

Waveform lighting sells flicker free LED lighting that they can't ship to california due to a lower power factor, and their 15W bulbs cost $29, so it's not a cheap component issue: https://www.waveformlighting.com/home-residential/why-cant-t...

Otherwise why exclude the california market in this case.
