Nice, you probably just enjoy it and there's nothing wrong with that. Of course, you can also get around with a carriage. But there is more out there.
Well, after 35 years in IT, I've heard enough promises of salvation to appreciate the advantages of a carriage ;)
I actually lack the imagination to envision where there would be any "smart" need in a run-of-the-mill house: heating runs continuously, ventilation likewise, domestic hot water preparation with a daytime time program (because of photovoltaics), shading passively via architecture (useful roof overhangs, etc.), and loading the washing machine/dishwasher is manual anyway – I can just start them quickly when they're full. We don't have any more technology than that. I could automate blinds, but they’re all still gathering dust in the original packaging because there has been no need so far (granted: small house, rainy summer :rolleyes:). Yes, well, I "have to" switch the lights manually, but I don’t find that too burdensome either.
System-internal optimizations, of course, make sense. For example, weather-controlled and return flow-regulated heating, forecast-based charging (photovoltaics), or, if you like, a scavenger hood fan controlled by cooking fumes or demand-based (garden) watering. These systems are already standard today, and you don’t need an overarching layer called smart home for that.
