Needle in gauge card resets when entity is changed

Description of problem:
I have created a customised gauge card in which I first define a variable max value and in a second step also want to make the deviations variable. But now I've noticed that when I change the entity, the needle jumps to "0" for a short time and the pointer wobbles.
With the standard gauge card, the status changes smoothly.

It happens because the nested card is REDRAWN when a monitored entity changed.
Consider this not as a bug but as an outcome of the card's design...

Question: in this example, does sensor.bar_var_sensor1 need to be a monitored entity? Since the templated values (just max) depend only on input_select.sensor_1_type, couldn't that alone be listed in entities?

Both of them should be declared in "entities".
