I get your point about internet connected light bulbs, but is there a particular reason you selected incandescents over other more energy efficient bulbs that don't have IoT capabilities?
the quality of light from your average energy bulb is typically terrible. I like warm light and whilst I know I can't see infra-red frequencies I want to see a concentration of light towards that end of the spectrum. It just makes for a much more relaxed feeling.
I stockpiled too. and I have dimmers on pretty much every lamp (including the toilet), so the bulbs last for a very long time. when you don't burn them on full wattage they last much much longer.
The perceived color temperature of the light is not the main issue in light quality, but rather the smoothness of the frequency composition of the light. Cheap LED bulbs have a "gappy" spectrum. "High CRI" bulbs are probaably what the OP is looking for.
I'm glad I bought up a stockpile of incandescents before they were banned.
