Setting default on select adds a second "Uncategorized" option

When I set the default on a SelectInput it adds the value in default to the options list. So after this there are two Uncategorized options. It is not eager loading, it is loading when you select the dropdown. 
Select::make('category')
                            ->label('Category')
                            ->required()
                            ->preload()
                            ->searchable()
                            ->relationship('category', 'name')
                            ->default('Uncategorized'),
Select::make('category')
                            ->label('Category')
                            ->required()
                            ->preload()
                            ->searchable()
                            ->relationship('category', 'name')
                            ->default('Uncategorized'),

wouldn't you define the id as default? I suspect it's saying ID = 0 for Uncategorized

Yeah, I was thrown off because it worked on other selects. After looking around and your comment, the others were coming through backed enums. What I currently have works, but I need to look into changing this so I can hook into the component and set it without making a database call. This is not a high traffic form. My current solution is 
->default(fn () => Category::where('name', 'Uncategorized')->pluck('id'))
->default(fn () => Category::where('name', 'Uncategorized')->pluck('id'))
