I’ve a shelly dimmer 2 in the en suite, set so that the dimmer goes to 30% during the night and back to 100% during the day. There’s a plain light switch controling it.
In the day time, all is good.
At night, when you switch the light on at the switch, it comes on at 100%, but when you turn it off and back on a few seconds later it goes to 30% as expected.
In the short term, I’ve set it to a detached switch, but I’d rather use the single switch setting as if HA goes down when someone needs to use the windowless ensuite, they won’t be able to turn on the light.
