Thanks. I typically turn on the lights with a wall mounted switch when I walk into a room and turn it off when I leave the room. Never gave brightness or color temperature much thought.

The biggest benefit is it gives you something to tinker with!
There are people out there who similarly light a candle and never gave much thought to the fanciness of a switch.
If candles were as safe as lightbulbs I would probably still use them.
Safety is a totally reasonable differentiator between substitutes. So's price, reliability, functionality, convenience, etc.
