WTH is it hard to detect if a scene is active, or group multiple scenes as variations

I just discovered the power of Scenes. I was previously just using scripts, but having the ability to just add entities and live-preview the settings I want for them is quite convenient.

Interestingly I find the opposite. https://community.home-assistant.io/t/delaying-a-scene/798012/3?u=tom_l

being able to detect scene statuses.

Scenes do not have a state they are a collection of actions. “Turn this on, turn that red, etc…”. Would you want your scene to become “active” if for example someone just by chance manually put a bunch of devices in the same state as the scene would?
