An energy saving, LED light bulb failed on my desk light yesterday week, but I couldn't find a replacement in my bulb drawer and had to make do with a power hungry spotlight bulb, which made the lightshade hot.
This got me to thinking that swapping out every light bulb in the house will result in me having to use more power to heat the house, as I'm not getting the heat I'd get from incandescent bulbs.
It might be worth switching to incandescent in winter and then back to LED in the summer.

Hmmmm.
problem is - unless all your light are at floor level - that the heat would be at the top of each room. Hot air doesn't sink.
