My yard goes green months before the Bermuda grass monoculture lawns in the neighborhood, and I have personally observed four different species of bees feeding in it, along with the Polistes carolina paper wasps, and the occasional Trypoxylon politum mud-pipe wasps. All of them are very docile, and we've never had any stings, despite frequent nest-building activity within 3m of our front door.
Pollinators are important. There are a lot of people out there that let their yards grow plants other than glass for the express purpose of feeding pollinators between spring emergence and the flowering of commercially important crops, including the buzz pollinators like bumblebees.
And we continually have to butt heads with HOA buttheads for whom "not grass" equals "weed". Those aren't "weeds"; they're "volunteers". If you can't identify it and find it on the state's official list of noxious and invasive species, go away and come back when you can.
I think someone tried a guerilla application of herbicide a couple of years ago, because everything died. I'm glad it all came back. I simply don't understand the level of control-freakishness that would motivate a person to spray herbicide on someone else's yard. It makes me want to intentionally seed some dandelions. Dandelions seem to send that kind of person into fits, for some reason unknown to me.
