Ask HN: Why are toggle switches replacing checkbox...
Unless you have two switches for the same light so the on position depends on what position the other switch is in too

Except when the bulb has gone. Which is the one time you really want to be sure the power is off.

In that case removing the broken bulb and sticking your fingers on the metal bits also works.

Both switches should be turned 90 degrees and move horizontally.
