  1. And chances are that your replacement lighting system took more energy to manufacture and get to you then the one that failed, so while it may make you feel better, chances are it didn't actually do the environment or anything else any benefit! Just get a higher quality led fixture that will last a little longer.

  2. It's funny how most of the problems you mentioned with the integrated fixtures are mostly YOU problems, since you are OCD picky over lights lol Most people won't be bothered if there are different color temperature lights in the same room, just like in the incandescent days most people had both a fluorescent ceiling fixture in the kitchen, along with gasp! incandescent bulbs in other lamps and devices, and very few people had a stroke! Yes, it can be a pain when the exact fixture is no longer available, but that's no different than what happens if a socket gets burned or the glass for a classic orange boob light gets broken, and you have to put in something that doesn't quite match. So either you find something close, or you replace the whole set, or you shift the good ones around and put the non matching replacement in the closet or around the corner, or in the guest room, where it won't clash directly.
