LED lights last longer and can be selected for color.

Not a good look to require them, but they are fundamentally superior so this is all a shrug.

I’ve had more issues with LED bulbs than incandescents:

Color: Varied even within the same brand and model.
Life: I’ve yet to have one last the rated time, and too many begin to fail far too early.
Reliability: Too many are over-driven on their circuits and flicker uncontrollably.

I love my LED flashlights, headlamps and weapon lights, but the LED replacement bulbs are problematic.

They don’t all last longer. I find they have a high failure rate.

LED lights rarely last their advertised life. I've probable had a couple of dozen or more different sizes and brands that required replacement more frequently than the incandescents that were there before them.. Even if you get those rated for an enclosed fixture, the electronics that drive the LADs tend to fail from overheating. The LED chips themselves are not the culprit in all of the failures that I had it was the driver electronics that went TU.
