Description

in 8.0.4 we normalized the state of name and description of technique parameters (see https://issues.rudder.io/issues/23847)

But we still used a generated id to find the value. We should use the parameter name which is unique within a technique (or else the value won't be usable)

This change lead to a bug in generation for windows nodes where we now use the description instead of the variable when a description was defined. (we fallbacked to the name if it was missing)

It simplifies lots of things and is not related to reporting.
