I call this the laser disc phase. When a tech is new and cool but still not evolved to practical.
We need to see whole house systems. All heating and cooling in the house in one system. AHU, dryer, fridge, water heater, oven, .....
Hell no, the power grid being a central point of failure is enough of a concern, we don't need to lose power to the fridge when any of the other interconnected systems needs repairs.
