You could set up HomeKit triggers that change the speed of your fan based on the "levels" of a Caseta plug in dimmer.
75% on Caseta dimmer = Fan speed to high
50% on Caseta dimmer = Fan speed to medium
25% on Caseta dimmer = Fan speed to low
0% on Caseta dimmer = Fan off
You would then program the 4-button Pico buttons to send the plug in dimmer to these levels. You would not need to have a light plugged in to the dimmer for this to work. Through my own testing I have found this to work consistently, but there is a noticeable delay...I am assuming that the delay would be less noticeable when changing the speed of a fan vs. the intensity of a light.
