That sounds like it's just trading vendor lock-in with Phillips for Apple instead.
Nothing wrong with that, right? As Bob Dylan says, everyone serves someone.
if OP doesn’t have the passion or time for DIY, the reality is an ecosystem awaits.
Sometimes you just want to pop a QR code, screw your light in and then have your smart speaker / phone just so it’s thing.
the key is who will offer what OP needs without farming data for resale, or, worse, criminal enterprise.
