I worked at a company that made IoT stuff (which is an increasingly archaic term). The web team was pitching using a third party tool called ThingSpace to view and manage the things. The web dev said ThingSpace could do all these amazing things automatically. The manager said “can we change the color of the background?” The web dev said “…. no.”

The logical answer is that too many Computer Science majors loved Silver Age comic books.

The Martian Manhunter was stronger than superman, but couldn't handle fire. Green Lantern was similarly godlike, but was unable to control anything colored yellow.
