I've heard this same sentiment for years but my refrigerator/freezer went out approx 3 months ago and I was dreading having to find a dumb replacement. But when I went to our local Lowe's, surprisingly there was only one smart refrigerator option out of the approx. 30 dumb units. So I was able to easily purchase a nice, high quality, dumb replacement. Obviously that's just anecdotal, but was a pleasant surprise.
