I don&#x27;t think you know what a logical fallacy is. Which one did I commit? Calm down, please. I am not &quot;waving a pitchfork&quot;. I didn&#x27;t own a Reolv, I don&#x27;t have a horse in this race.<p>However, I do think that there&#x27;s a valid discussion to be had over the fate of a device that&#x27;s integrated to the point a &quot;home automation hub&quot; is. The normal expectation is that these devices continue to work for the life of the device, not when some company throws a switch somewhere.<p>The problem here is that there&#x27;s no alternative. No graceful degradation. If Ecobee dies tomorrow, I still have a working thermostat.<p>This? None. Your device is now literally and figuratively <i>worthless</i>, the money you spent on it literally wasted. Were I a purchaser of one of these things, I&#x27;d be feeling <i>damn</i> scandalized, ripped off, and rightly so.
