The Ikea Tradfri Control bridge and devices paired to it do not integrate directly with Hubitat. THere are ways to bring them into Hubitat (eg. using Node-RED).

Nice. Do you have a link to the bulbs? Also do you know the names their being manufactured under?
Here’s the ones I tried:

But there’s many other “brands” - Seedan, Dogain, Liokkie, CMARS - they’re all the same manufacturer (eWeLink).
Which also supports Hue devices the HE native integration does not.
I'll second @thebearmay's point. Hue just works, and manages the hardware just fine. Leave them on their own Hub and use one of the integrations. CoCoHue is my favorite, but the native Hubitat integration is good too.
I have found no compelling argument for moving any of my many Hue devices other than Motion Sensors to a direct Hubitat Zigbee connection.

I use a hue hub for mine but the compelling argument is real-time updates instead of Hubitat having to poll the devices for status updates.

Yes
Yea, that makes sense. Not an issue for my use cases, but I can certainly see where that might be an issue for some!

You may want to also look at Innr bulbs . They work with Hue or by them selves. I've never used, or even looked in to the ikea bulbs. Maybe its just my perception but they seem like they are "odd",
