You don't understand the system. Smart does exactly what you say - post-processing by the servers eliminates those subjects you have chosen to not be stored in the cloud. Local recordings don't have anything to do with Smart so all are recorded. You can donate videos from cloud recordings to help the team tweak the IDs. Allow all recordings in Smart to do this.
Also, it's not the lights that are detected - it's IR emissions. Setting zones and modifying motion sensitivity can help tons. Works fine here with minimal false triggers.

Regarding the issues with reflecting light, the issue comes from headlights hitting a parked car in my driveway. No way to eliminate that with zones, probably not with sensitivity without gutting the rest of the area.

What's the point of paying a subscription fee for server storage if the (un)"smart" algorithm is going to decide what is stored on the server? What if you don't have or don't want to manage local storage? In order to facilitate a 3 second lookback, the Arlo camera has to essentially be continuously recording! Are you inferring that in order to get complete activity recordings one has to enable a local storage method? It's not unreasonable to expect all motion detected be recorded to the paid cloud service and stored for the 30 days as contracted. The "smart" settings infer that you what you want notification for particular events - after all they are referred as "smart NOTIFICATIONS". One would assume that recording locally is a BACK-UP of recordings that are purged after the 30 days of server storage. Even with all smart notifications checked, I still have noticed recordings appear to be missed. I see people leave who were never recorded coming! That is a huge problem.
