Power tools already have a standard, smart home is a totally different beast though, and AFAIK most items should use USB-C?

Are you saying power tools have a standard battery interface? That you could use batteries from any brand with any tool?
That has not been my experience.

They most certainly do not. Each brand has their own battery platform.

Not all of them follow it ofc (like micro USB when released) but a bunch of them do, and I'd recommend buying compatible for compatibility sake AND for support for it:
