After reading how much the thermostat can raise bills I would've loved to see an "eco/cost friendly" alternative. Like maybe a thermostat that's cheaper in buymode yet makes bills higher (maybe it's old, used, not very efficient, etc.) and one that costs a lot more in buymode but has "smart technology" that will turn off when it's not needed, thus making bills cheaper. Or they could've put in a ceiling fan or window with an airconditioning unit? I think those would've been 'cool' (haaaa get it?) alternatives to only one thermostat option.
