Do Picos always count towards the 50 device limit? A specific example of this is a Caseta dimmer that's paired to a Pico. Can't the Pico be paired directly to the dimmer without the bridge needing to be involved?

The Pico will count towards the 50 device count limit of the bridge. If the dimmer isn't activated to the bridge, you can link the Pico to it directly, but if you activate the dimmer to the bridge, it will no longer listen to a Pico until you activate the Pico to the bridge and then link it to the dimmer via the app.
Thanks, Brian. That's what I gathered from reading the instructions again last night. So in the case where you pair the Pico to the dimmer using the bridge you are using two devices (of the 50).
