I think the real point is that in applications such as yours the standard (4 hop) Z-Wave system is quite capable.  Obviously, each
home is different and one 3,500 sf home might be more difficult to accommodate than another.  Some have claimed without ever having
seen it, much less tested it, that Z-Wave cannot handle larger homes at all.  It does the newsgroup a service to post real world
experience with Z-Wave and competing technologies.
