Smart lighting in a newly built house

And don’t forget that all of this requires power so in case of a power outage you’re also out of luck despite of all the money you poured into a super-reliable solution.

OP did address this point though.

For lights, our rules dictate us, that we want them to be smart, but if something goes wrong, they need to work as dumb lights unless all electricity in the house goes off.
