It tries to associate Bluetooth names (and the correspondong addresses)
with known patterns for dive computer names. I'm actually surprised that
this didn't end up with an error that it can't determine the address - but
maybe the slightly odd BT names of the OSTC devices worked out in our
favor here and it was misdetected?

Can you reproduce this behavior? If yes, I'd love to see the
subsurface.log for such a successful attempt

That's what worries me about this whole thing, TBH. It shouldn't work, and
if it did work, it shouldn't make a difference. So what's going on?
