LIMITATIONS

⚠️ Group entries will NOT be updated. This means several groups may contain machines that NO LONGER exist after having renamed a machine.

okay so that's the messy part — not me warning you, it's literally in the manual. Group entries do not get updated, so after a rename, some groups might still be holding onto machine entries that are gone gone. 💀
