Some people are unlucky enough to buy homes where a machine engineer designed the boiler setup and the boiler room have enough valves and manometers to like operate the engine of Titanic.
I guess programmers are the new sinners in this area nowadays.
(But still more comfortable than 99% of the houses I've been in.)
I haven't mentioned in the parent comment but as a test I've dismantled the HA system and installed the Siemens system and it works well, just not 'perfectly'.
In generall I think all these IoT systems will be a major headache as they age.
My thermostats on the radiators are 45 year old by now. That is kinda the expected service life we are used to.
If I inherit a heating system I want it to be all mechanical except maybe the control system for any heating pump.
