b) why in God's name did they get rid of the favorite dim level on the switch itself? The whole point of a dimmer is to not use it at it's maximum setting. I can turn on blindingly bright light or hold the extremely slow dimming button for 4 seconds to bring it to my comfort level? Come on... Take away the favorite setting on the important part of the device pair and move it to the cheap wireless remote?
It's hard to get behind these switches to use in automation when their core functionality of being a switch is less than that of the regular Maestro switches. I can only think that they either didn't actually test these in real life or just want to differentiate these from the RadioRA branded switches.
