Rare Earth by Peter Ward is what you’re after here. I took an elective in college that effectively was reading a bunch of space science (and history, it was odd) and discussing. This one caught me off guard but was a decent breakdown of a possible answer to Fermi.
I don’t necessarily agree with the supposition, mainly because it still comes from a place of specifically carbon-based life as the end goal. But they do lay out reasoning in an easy to understand way that was super neat to learn.

Lol agreed, I’m not buying another one. I mainly wanted to get a look* at how because I’m much better at understanding things when i can hold and inspect them.
Edit: I’ll add that my main requirement was not needing a new hub to control them, hence this zwave solution 🙂
I grabbed one of these and attached to our largest blinds and they work phenomenally. The main issue is cost, but I really just wanted something as a proof of “how” to do it, and hope to come up with a cheaper homebrew later on.
Usually, you need a 10:1 ratio or so of hens to roosters, otherwise they start fighting a bunch. So maybe the person just has 30 hens laying about 🙃

Welp. I chuckled a lot through that ❤️
“Waiter, there’s US in my tea?”
Legitimately didn’t expect to see this, but then again my main bubble of frustrating news is US
