It sounds worse than it is. It's an LED so it needs a driver anyway and when it comes to digital components the cost is in the programming, not the parts.
It's still a waste though because of how badly implemented it is. My first thought shouldn't be "Sheesh they should make a light switch for this thing"
Putting full web capable hardware inside light bulbs seems extraordinarily wasteful.
