But given that the average contract developer is charging themselves out at $100/hour investing the time to "program a thermostat" will rarely result in a ROI.

It took me like 10 minutes to program my schedule into my cheap honeywell programmable thermostat. A leisurely 10 minutes. I can't speak to my ROI on the endeavor, but since the thermostat was ~$25 I can only assume I'm rocketing toward breaking even.
