Just because it hasn't got a microcontroller in it doesn't make it dumb, IMHO.

It's hard with my limited language skills.
I rather meant the roughness. For example the older modular lego sets where you had lots of similar bricks (=dumb). Not complex parts (= not dumb). Like a clay brick versus a door. Ok, that's a bad analogy but it might give a better idea.
Maybe I just have the wrong thing in my mind for the word "dumb" though, I am not sure.
