Ah, didn’t notice that the Mini has no WiFi. That alone clearifies it.  
If it had WiFi I don’t see why you wouldn’t place it in sight. At least not in comparison with the Pro.  
But that’s totally off-topic of course. 😉  
Thx for replying.

I have my Homey bridge tucked away. No desire to have it sitting out and viewable.

Does it have good IR range then? Because it of course needs LoS for Infrared

Not sure, that’s not really a feature I use.

I primarily purchased it so my hosted Homey server could Control all my Zwave devices.

I think the thing this conversation thread demonstrates most, is that everyone has a different way of implementing their smart home. Each with very different requirements.

But I believe that demonstrates the requirement of a smart home hub to have the most flexible and varied connectivity options to make it a really good device for all, no matter their skill level or requiements.

Our smart homes are almost as unique as we are 😁
