The fixtures and bulbs we buy are not intended for anything but aquaria and horticulture. The 3500-6500 k bulbs are used on structures.
A large building spotlit with that familiar glow used to be on the home page of radium.de. You can now find discharge lamps 11th out of 13th in their product list. Their primary use at one point was for large, outdoor illumination. Aquarium owners just put them above their tanks. Radiums have no problems moving off the shelf and hopefully we order enough of them for production to make sense. We are still second on the description of the bulb "Notes: AquaStar/ light colour blue i.a. for dramatic illumination or aquarium lighting".
Many of the hobby specific diy halide components have been discontinued. Of course there will always be halides, that wasn't my point. They might not have the specific ones you currently use. Maybe they will have a better one. Who knows.
