Not at all evident.
In my case (this happened 1 year ago) I removed the offending client and when
I tried to recreate it with the same name NW produced a warning because the
same clientId was already linked to a different hostname ( it had been
renamed a few months earlier by another admin). Apparently some crash had
also occurred in the past and that could have left the system in some
inconsistent state. So, no, not at all evident.
