Really? What is on the end of the iI2C lines then?

Various things, for example several I2C temperature and humidity sensors,
some I2C A2D converters, etc.

 
And you think that none of these are, or contain, 'microcontrollers'?
 

Well almost everything does nowadays!  However they do **present** as
a single chip with an I2C interface and nothing else.  You don't have
to program them as you would an Arduino or an ESPE32. Thus all my
configuration and software is in the Pi and all it does is 'talk I2C'
down the wires.
