I have a lot of surface fixed electrics (lighting and comms), also water pipes (heating) in the house, and redundant stuff too. chasing will solve this before i redecorate the other spaces. Also I like making small batches of thistle bond plaster. Weird I know.

Our flat is almost entirely surface mounted conduit. It makes me weep. fucking square trunking across the ceiling to the rose. For shame! We don't plan on living here for long enough to bother doing a rewire, but god it's ugly.
As for mixing up plaster and filling holes, I'm making no judgements there! Wish I had more excuses to get the hawk and float out.

If the difference is between chasing a new switch cable in, or going wireless - I reckon a lot of people will opt for wireless. But as you say, there's going to be a whole load of new problems to go with the new tech.
I can't imagine I'd last long trying to troubleshoot a lightbulb with an app either.
