Or maybe areas like Hawaii where preventing light pollution is of critical importance? I feel like a lot of mass-produced technologies face their main hurdle at manufacturing and if early adopters fund those initial manufacturing costs, the price can then come down quite a lot. But ultimately, it's mostly wishful thinking, how I would want the world to be, seeing the issues all around us now.

Or spectrum of light other than white? I like to use red light at night inside of our house instead of white because I’ve read it’s more relaxing and helps promote better sleep.

Yeah, that's what they do in Hawaii currently, with amber LEDs that mimic the tone of the old sodium-vapor lamps.

It's definitely an improvement. I would love to see both the matrix and the amber spectrum applied at the same time, that's like peak utopia for me right there.
