Recorder purge_entities does not delete statistics_short_term #160292
Description
The problem
Running recorder.purge_entities only removes data from the "states" table, but not from the "statistics_short_term" table.
This was previously in detail reported here, which was marked as stale and closed without resolution.
According to this comment, the short term statistics should be purged along with the states, so this seems to be a bug in the purge_entities action.
