You specifically picked things like toasters and fridges which seem like frivolous if not entirely useless applications of LLMs.
But you can be more charitable and imagine more productive uses of AI on the edge that are impossible today. Those uses would presumably create some value, so if by reducing AI energy costs by 90% we get all the AI usage we have today plus those new uses that aren't currently viable, it's a better bang for buck.
