Home automation itself is a gimmick! I think most people get into this stuff because it's fun, not because light bulbs and thermostats are too hard.

I disagree. I love the convenience of not having to ever touch a light switch to turn on and off the lights. It is nice to be able to adjust the temp when in bed if it isn't right or even better have it just set it for you. I think we confuse a smart home with a connected home. A smart home just does the things for you so you don't have to do anything.
