It is a nice website, but I agree with you.

It reminds me of the thinking that a smart home is one that you can turn the lights on or off with a web app or smart assistant. In reality, the most pleasant implementations do something like use motion sensors or wifi/Bluetooth to avoid having to even open the app for the automations to kick in.

E.g.: detecting when no one is connected to the home wifi and locking the doors might be more useful than having the option to remotely do it since there is no need to remember.
