I was actually surprised by how many devices I ended up with. Turns out I had more than I thought to start with but also created more devices in HE than I had in ST. Most of them are LAN/Cloud though.
I didn't have these in ST: Unifi integration (creates 1 main device + 1 device per kids WiFi you want to block at night), superTiles (to workaround limited dashboard templates), as much as a need for virtual devices (for example: as workaround for modes not exposed to Alexa), some integration/bookkeeping devices such as "Life 360 refresh", "Echo Speaks - WebSocket", etc. It added up to quite a lot.
If all you need is the ability to turn it on and off, you can use Alexa as the middleman, with a virtual switch in HE.
