Tech industry sucks for all the reasons you said. Your perspective is not unreasonable but capitalism and how it affects consumer products is unreasonable. Unfortunately we cant change that in any reasonable amount of time at the moment.
Sticking a tablet to your fridge to make it a smart fridge does provide you the functionality you want from a smart fridge without the ads for all the reasons @cmnybo@discuss.tchncs.de has mentioned above.
Those two things are not mutually exclusive.
You may want the tech industry to be better and provide the product you want to have but that doesn’t mean they have to. They haven’t shown interest in making that type of product and I don’t think that will change anytime soon.
You can be disappointed in that reality and continue your life without a smart fridge or accept Frankenfridge into your life and live out all your smart fridge fantasies. The choice is yours. Go wild… yolo!
