Since it uses a local user, it doesn’t need to update an access token through Homey’s cloud periodically.
It does mean that there might be differences between the cloud-based web app and the local web app, since the latter will (presumably) only be updated with new firmware updates.
Also, it still depends on certain online resources, like Google Fonts, which means that when functioning fully offline you may run into rendering issues.
And unless the mobile app also gets support for local users, it will still require periodic cloud communications. Since there’s a (growing) mismatch between features being exclusively available through either the mobile app or the web app, it’s not making life a lot easier.
