Why is physical on/off for a Zigbee device not reported accurately?

Why Hubitat Elevation Ask Anything

What can I do to have the hub always detecting physical on/off state?

I know a poller driver exist for Zwave, but what about Zigbee?

You need to have a robust zigbee mesh. I have one of these switches, and there are no issues with the detection of physical on/off.

Z-Wave Poller app is a workaround solution for some legacy Z-Wave devices that were manufactured prior to 2016, when the Lutron’s instant reporting patent expired. Zigbee devices, as well as newer Z-Wave devices don't need polling. If a device isn't reporting physical actuation properly, it is likely because the mesh network is weak, or there is an issue with the individual device that isn't working properly.
