Best practices - merging devices

I have the same situation with my refrigerator. There are four detections for components. The compressor, fridge door light, ice/water dispenser and defrost.
I choose to keep them separate because I don’t want a notification or the usage to be combine for the door light, dispenser and compressor. I want the cycles of the compressor to be able to be tracked so I can see the actual running cost to keep things cold.
I also find it interesting how many times the door gets opened a month, about 700.
