Smart switches aren't really a big deal to swap in. Plus, there's more options for purely local only devices based on espHome.

The only reason I didn't go that route is because I have wall sconces that I wanted to separate from pot lights, and I really don't like doing drywall repairs.

I'm having a problem with smart switches maybe someone knows the solution, my switches don't have positive and negative, they are 1 wire only, there are some solutions that use a super capacitor I installed one as a test and it works fine.

That said, I'm looking for dimmable and/or ZigBee alternatives that work that way.
