I can't believe I'm even engaging this post, but... what's the use-case? Gotta say, this sounds extra creepy.
Turn on the lights in the bedroom based on presence sensor, but only if the bed occupancy sensor detects no one is in bed.
Turn off the lights when 2 people in bed. Turn the lights on really low when only 1 person gets up. Track time you went to bed / time in bed as a low-budget sleep tracker not tied to a big data broker, like a smart watch would be....

Self-hosted. The data stays within my home- It is processed locally on my server.
You must be here from c/all. Home Assistant is a self-hosted application and stores all of its data locally on hardware you own and control. If there's data mining, its because you put it there yourself.
Yeah as if people aren't linking it to Google and Alexa for voice commands
So don't do that if that's important to you. I don't. Besides, home assistant has its own local voice commands if you want them.
