Default Low Energy bulb : Not suitable for use with dimmers, time switches or photo cells.

Most LE bulbs seem to say: Not suitable for use with dimmers, time
switches or photo cells.

I can understand they are not suitable for dimmers, but what is wrong
with having a time switch or dawn-to-dusk switch turn such bulbs on and
off?
