Replacing BR30 (?) bulbs with recessed lights to reduce glare

I'm moving into a new home soon and it's got what appears to be BR30 bulbs in the ceiling.

Unfortunately I haven't moved in yet, so I can't confirm for sure, but here is a picture from the listing to help verify.

After doing some research on this sub and getting overwhelmed by options, this is what I'm considering to replace them with.

My goal is to have better, more aesthetic and functional, lighting. Ideally I'd like to have these linked to a (smart?) dimmer switch.

Are these a good option? Will these fit and just be plug and play?

Is there something better I could consider?

My current alternative plan is to instead just the existing BR30 bulbs with Hue BR30 bulbs, but based on what I saw on another post - you can either have a good lighting setup, or you can have a Hue setup.

Best lenses for Seattle?

After years of wearing generic polarized Raybans, I've recently discovered the joys of actually good sunglasses.

I'm rocking a pair of Maui Jims with the HCL bronze and it's been revelatory.

I now want to see if there's anything better I can get, particularly for driving and day to day activities in the Seattle sun and overcast glare.

A second pair of Maui Jims with the Maui Rose lenses is what I was immediately drawn to, but I also don't know what I don't know and there's clearly a whole world of lens coatings and filters that I'm wholly unfamiliar with.

Style wise, I'm draw to Rayban Wayfarers and Clubmasters, along with the Maui Jim Kawika

I'm 99.9% sure the answer is no, but I figured I'd ask since this would tip me over into Gold status.

If I'm booking a flight on American through American's site, and I have an AA account, is there any way to input my Alaska Atmos number to get status perks and/or status points for Alaska?

I'm debating getting an Ensis to put over my kitchen island and I'd like to paint it to match my cabinets for a more seamless look.

Is the Ensis covered in a plastic that paint would stick to?
