The problem is that each part manufacturer wants you to install their shitty RGB control software that is often bizarrely resource-hogging, and sometimes even used for data gathering.

On laptops, some RGB control software can eat your battery away by a fair bit because the CPU never goes into a lower power state.

RBG should A) all conform to a standardised open API, and B) be off by default.
