so I asked about it on github but as I saw in one of the comments it is what it is and it won’t be rolled back.

but check this one out:

I’ve got a set of scenes, that set my lighting during the day and night and also keep my speakers [sonos, google homes etc.] with a specified volume. I can override it by saying/setting volume higher or lower, but I use scenes to set “default volume” for each time of the day.
very convenient, as for example: after playing music with loud volume at the midday, I can be sure that if at the evening I’ll ask google to play some music - it won’t blow my speakers but it will play gently with the “evening setting”. I know that I can set night profile on the speaker, but it’s not enough - anyway, why I bother to do that if I have Home Assistant and all the scenes configuration!

now mandatory “states” goes in.
by setting that - I’m forceing my media_players to be off when I don’t want them to. I’m ok if the volume changes because the time of the day changes, but with state in the scene [and for the safety - I’m gonna use “off”] if the speaker is playing during change of time of the day - it will be stopped.

is it me, or it just sucks and some basic features were cut down now?
