You can turn off the internet access at almost all Tuya devices by making use of the local tuya HACS add on in home assistant. Maybe that’s helpful for your research

Tuya was also supposedly reworking their API/integration to allow for local control, though idk if that ever happened.
The Hacs Integration makes use of the device’s API - don’t know if it is their intended use of it, but it works
Tuya requires cloud access and the API’s are on their way to be paid only.
Only use tuya zigbee. Keep away from wifi devices at all costs!
