When I use the update with --be-name, isn't it enough to assume

Hmmm...
We've had debates on this ourselves... not clear
whether --be-name should mean
"if you need a new BE, use this name"
vs
"I think you need a new BE, so use this".

Since I'm "passing through" I'll pipe up and vote for the latter.
It's easy to change a BE's name after it's been created; it's not so
easy to undo an operation that updated the active BE in place, then
re-run that operation with an additional "--force-new-be" flag.
