Would it be possible to link “HomeWizard energy” to HomeWizard”? I am sure some people will just search for ‘energy’ to find this integration. This can be something temporary.

Depends on how you see it, in terms of functionality it doesn’t indeed but I think it would be nice to mention it somewhere. It may break someone’s workflow. But feel free to remove that label!

Sure! But we don't consider every workflow one which is eligible for a breaking change :)

I know, hah! I think you know the HA audience better, so you can decide! ...and I hope renaming the title of an integration does not cause issues. I just wanted to start a discussion to be sure.
