You are very right about electronics being much more capable than electromechanical systems. We can sychronize the frequency much better with GPS for example. This wasn't an issue for small scale solar, so apparently nobody implemented it to keep things low cost. We are at a point that we need these.
The beauty of it is the electronics can be connected and controlled much better with each other too, so more optimized control algorithms for supply and demand balancing is possible. Bad thing is, this will incentivize to solve problems by over the air updates. As we know software reliability has gotten so much worse, which makes it more prone to bugs being pushed. Obe should expect weird outages due to someone pushing something buggy.
