While looking at the documentation for the component filter exponential_moving_average I noticed that the link for "exponential moving average" took you to a NIST's quantile Dataplot page. While I am not familiar with Dataplot or Simple Moving Quantile filter, the method in the NIST link and the implementation of ESPHome's Simple Moving Average have a striking similarity.
However, ESPHome's Quantile implementation has does not resemble NIST's page. I'm sure this is a lack of understanding but wanted to make sure there wasn't an opportunity to correct the reference or make the explanation in the docs / code more clear.
