I have a c7 that works well for me and was going to post this same deal from the smartest house, but saw the better deal on ebay.

One of the problems I found with Zigbee and Zwave is that there is standard functionality that isn't standard. For example, if you use smart plugs, there's no easy intuitive interface to set a timer to have it turn on or off in x minutes. There's no standard that allows you to set what a plug does if it experiences power loss. Does it return to the state it was in? Does it turn off or on?
Some of the WiFi devices you can get are just packaged with good apps.
Expect to spend a lot of time tinkering to get a basic system running. Smart homes are not anywhere near ready for the general public.
I would love to go down the Home Assistant rabbit hole, but I just don't have the time to dedicate to it.
I chose to go the Google route for an assistant in the house. One of the big selling points of Hubitat is that it can run locally so if your internet is down, things still work.
What does HA bring to the table that hubitat doesn't already do? I've used hubitat for a while and haven't run into anything that just plain doesn't work, but then I'm not going nuts with it either.

It is always something involved once we can see amazing price

It's also not zwave lr, but you could get a zwave 800 lr stick for home assistant, which zooz states is up to a mile, which you're also not going to get, but should be further than the 700 in a c7.
you can run home assistant on very low power pcs as well.

So something like this? https://www.thesmartest
Is the move away from this device based on the software? or limitation of the hardware seeing it's a "one show pony?" asking because for $69 it would be the cheapest route if you don't need it to do anything else.

Hubitat C7 does have some device limitations that HA may have more elegant solutions for. That's a YMMV.
You would however need an z-wave USB stick (for the z-wave radio/antenna) to plug into the metal box where you install HA, and turn the HA box into your z-wave hub.
Smartest House website does sell those USB stick from Zooz.
Given the price tag of the Pi these days (plus storage and fan and case and power), you (could but) likely would not want to run HA on a Pi. Thin clients, SFF PCs, headless laptops, NAS, can all do virtual machines these days, and that's probably where you want to go.

Basement has 12 can lights spanning a great big basement. There's logically 3 areas (TV, Pingpong/pool and a kitchen). There are 3 switches for this. I replaced them with smart switches that control the individual regions instead of all off or all one. But multiple taps on the switches will control the other lights.
Also have routines where:
- porch lights come on at dusk and off again a few hours later
- all lights go out at 10pm downstairs because kids never turn them off
- kids bedroom lights go off around 8:30a M-F because they leave them on when they leave for school
- son's bedroom light comes on in the morning to attempt to wake him up
- daughter (3yo) has a night light with a smart bulb that turns green at 8am letting her know its ok to get out of bed and up for the day. It turns red at 8pm letting her know its bedtime.
I've been very happy with it.
