Yes the replace feature is very helpful. The trick with the extra browser tab is a good idea for drivers that will reset or read the settings from the device upon inclusion. Some drivers will just set the device back how it was, it just depends on how the author coded it.
I wrote up a similar guide geared more at Zooz devices but like yours can apply to anything:
And if all else fails and you have to pair the device new (or you have an older hub) use the Swap Apps Device feature found in the Settings page.
