My experience is that if you interrupt a single transition in Hue in any way (i.e. changing the brightness during the “Fade duration”) that it simply cancels the transition and will not attempt to override what you have specified. I imagine the problem arises from if you have multiple “automations” for different steps of brightness, in which case there isn’t a good way for the system to know if you intended to override future automations too.

Yes, transitions are a single command to the hub, so any subsequent update will override your previous. You need to write a lot of logic that captures the current state and target state then retriggers the fade when appropriate (e.g. after a debounce).

I guess the HomeKit integration with Hue is the problem then.

Its just how the Hue hub works

I am using Hue via HomeKit, and it works differently. The automations are not cancelled, they continue.
