You did call that. I should have acknowledged that. Sorry.

Agreed. Though in my defense, I WAS able to rule out nearly every bit of that except "the Alexa servers plus the TP-Link servers".
I just never expected it to be so device-specific: all of the KL125 bulbs in use and nothing else.
Ah well. They're making it harder and harder for me to use these devices without the internet, but for the time being, I still have a local-only solution using a HomeAssistant server that I can use to turn on/off Kasa devices without any internet service.
