(Yeah there may be the MAC randomization, if accepted).
There are more clever ways than just to clear the environment. We have "env export" and "env import", so you can create one or more backup copies or user proviles. Instead of clearing the environment, you could also load one such previously saved user profile, which then would contain the MAC address.
