Sure... a Philips Hue Emulator has become the "standard" for cheap WiFi light bulbs. So a WM100 and a handful of appliance modules, a few accessories and some on-line WiFi bulbs PLUS an Echo... could make any home automated. But also think what the code writers could get the WM100 to do with the signals sent to a PC, as well.
Home Automation is an always changing technology

This would require a hardware change but Authinx might get away with a firmware update.
Google has stopped recognizing Hue emulators and many expect others to follow.
If this happens that part of the hub could be non responsive to a Voice assistant command depending on how it was coded.
I my self would never use it
