Advantage is the warmer feel, plus I'm kind of over smart bulbs to a degree. I still have some Hue bulbs on the main floor in my house and enjoy them, but in Canmore I don't want to fata around with extra crap...just want to show up and chill. These seem like a great spot to land so I don't have the bright-white-LED-standard-lightbulb thing going on, but I also don't need to worry about apps and syncing and potential issues.
I'm not big on super bright living spaces but I couldn't imagine cooking, cleaning, physical work, etc all on 470 lumens. Especially in the short dim winter days. The people who owned our place before us had something that low in two pendants over the dining table and it was like candle lit dinner every night. Swapped those out with some dimmable 1100 lumen LED edison style super quick.
