A smart bulb solves the “turn off from bed” problem, but I just feel it’s limited if you can’t solve the “turn on remotely” problem because there is a 50/50 chance of the walk switch being in off position.

I don’t mind smart bulbs at all - I do mind the combination “single smart bulb behind dumb switch” which is the most common scenario and yet completely broken.
