> - So the Item `Licht_Badezimmer_Spiegellampe_Farbtemperatur` uses `0` for cold white and `100` for warm white

This does confuse me now, because a result of this whole thread was the desire to change the existing behaviour from what you describe to the other way around:  
0 = low kelvin values = warm  
100 = high kelvin values = cold

This is why I adjusted the implementation. So for you now it is expected to work “inverted”.

To make everyone happy, I might think about introducing also an “invert” flag for the temperature then…

For the other observations:  
We can not do anything on how the home app / the assistant is behaving in terms of dealing with colors, so e.g. what colors are presented and to what kelvin values they refer. Same for the spoken commands - no influence on what is “warm white” or “cold white”. This is also why we probably need to live with what is currently presented there.

Yes, I think that would be the best choice 👍🏻 Thank you very much!
