You are absolutely correct. It is a horrible mess.
Which is why Homeassistant is a godsend - you can add the mess and present it in a sensible way. As long as you stay the fuck away from anything cloud you are pretty much golden no matter what the parent company decides to do.
E.g. Telldus had a huge range of 433mhz things that still work IF you avoided their TelldusNet or whatever.
