g Why hidden entities, not rendering?

In 0.17 we have Lua rendering, this feature supports light without
placing of special entity.

The mod was made in 0.16 originally. Also it supports configurable power usage and they turn on with normal lamps at present.
Reviewing use of the Lua rendering for lighting in certain mod setting scenarios is on the list, but I haven't bothered yet.

I've made the same rendering feature for mod RITEG, just tiny light to show high temperature in the night.

Yea but Lua rendering isn't an equal replacement, it is better in some cases and more limited in others. So it needs consideration.
