Description
It causes lots of knock ons if they're linked to other data like responders.
Check but I assume the manufacturer update process did this, if so maybe just report a warning and allow a manual deletion in the extremely rare case where it's actually required.
E.g.

Research direction
Start by locating the manufacturer update process and tracing how an existing manufacturer ID is handled when its value changes. Check the related responder data and confirm that updates preserve IDs, report a warning instead of deleting them, and still allow an explicit manual deletion when required.
