Stair Light Bug

Smart home automation fighting itself: my stair light wouldn’t stay off at night. Sleep mode turns it off → motion sensor turns it back on → fine, except the automation also tried to “restore the previous state” after motion. Problem: it kept saving the *current* state, including its own “ON”. So restore = no-op. Light stayed on all night. Fix: only save the state when the light is OFF. 🤦
