You can save just as much money with a 1970s thermostat. Turn it down or off or up when you need to, simple as that.

Electronics? you're funny. Mercury switch might need a replacement at 20 years, bimetallic strip could need recalibration.. but just hang accurate thermometer next to it instead.

inexpert observation:

There are realms where quantum mechanics doesn't work, but Einstein's GR does....sure, vice versa too but the point is Einstein made something amazing that endures with time. Gravity might NOT be a quantum phenomenon, and our Standard Model can't handle gravity neither can our quantum field theories that came later.

We had LIGO first detecting colliding black holes via gravity waves for not even 9 years yet.... a century after Einstein published GR. holy shit!
