First of all what you download is your own business. Nobody is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to download room thermostat ROMs. But if there were, it would be hilarious.
It helps if you think of it this way.
That room thermostat that annoys you so much might share significant bits of hardware with your favorite arcade game.
Each system exercise their particular components in their own way, but since MAME is modular and these components are shared between systems, this means that your favorite arcade game could potentially benefit from MAME emulating a room thermostat (ridiculous example lol)
Personally I'm not interested in "room thermostats" but I love that *maybe* someone out there is and I'd definitely follow the dev diary of someone working on emulating one <3
