Bottom line, without the extensive training there is NO WAY that an efficiently built & operating "Control System" or "Automation System" will be built. Will you be able to get a "Universal Remote" working with the software (All manual control, no automated setup, etc)? Perhaps, but it is not what the product was meant to be or designed to be.
On the whole, I agree with what you're saying. But on this point you are simply incorrect.
