They're going forward with their own "Nest Weave" which despite the name is a completely separate platform/ecosystem from Google's stuff

I swear, I don't know what gets into companies sometimes. They do that, they've all but assured that I'll never buy another Nest anything. Brillo? I wouldn't be happy about it (as primarily an Apple user), but I'd understand. And who knows, I'm open to options. But your own special snowflake API? Yeah, screw that, I've been down that road too many times.
