          - If equal support level and priority, keep the step associated
            with the HardwareManager whose name comes earlier in the alphabet.

        The steps will be called using `hardware.dispatch_to_managers` and
        handled by the best suited hardware manager. If you need a step to be
        executed by only your hardware manager, ensure it has a unique step
        name.
