Most of the items for my Pentair system are pump modes. They show up as lights. As such, I cannot change the entity type.
If assigned as a switch, the user has the ability to add a helper to make the switch a light. It does not work the other way around.
This caught me in a situation where I had an automation that turned off all light entities, which ended up turning off my pump.
