Eek! Who knows with Apple I suspect is the bottom line.
The only good news is every implementation will have the same potential issue (if indeed there is one)
This homebridge thread - probably will be most updated
https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge/issues/3250& this feedback there reassuring
I have convert my Home to new architecture 16.2 also updated HomePod mini , iPad and iPhone to 16.2 and all working as before. Homebridge is not affected and working OK.
Seems like should be okay - but wouldn’t race in to update!
