#Re-flashing an ESPHome device results in a core-config entry that has the title of the old device.

If I re-flash a device, the title remains the same as the old device. This is confusing. Is it possible to replace a device when the new one has the same MAC address?

"Greaubot Water Pressure" was the title of the original device.

#

I re-flashed it with "Austin's Lights" but the title of the device under the ESPHome integration remained "Greaubot Water Pressure".
