Did ESPHome or HA change the entity naming scheme in the last 5 months or was it something on my end?

I recently updated to my pair of Emporia Vue energy monitors to reflect changes recommended by the Dev. (since the last update I did 5 months ago) After doing this I noticed that my entity names had changed, but it wasn’t completely uniform in its scheme.

Everything was formatted like sensor.emporiavue1_balance_power, but now it seems it is only the entities that I added today that are formatted like that and all of the previously existing entities no longer have the name field included.

Did I miss an update to HA or ESPHome where this was discussed or it specific to something I am doing??
