Incandescents are widely maligned for making much more light than heat;
but if I'm correct, in a centrally heated home that extra heat produced
by incandescents would be recycled, by helping heat the home (and
reducing heating oil bills slightly)?

Where incandescent lamps do score is that, unlike low energy lamps and
fluorescent tubes, they are not classed as hazardous waste and do not need
specialist disposal facilities.
