Sorry, but it isn’t a “poor work around” at all, it’s the guts of how SmartThings works. “Cluttering” up the shortcuts section is a false concern (you can always rearrange it). If you’re trying to use Lights & Switches as the UI to SmartThings, you are a bit off base. Got to separate the issues: 1. get the functionality you need (entails using every SmartApp you need to get the functionality fine tuned), and 2. get a UI that works for you (take a look at SmartTiles.click).
