There is a good chance of mistakenly dropping the required objects
manually after the subscriber is converted. One can mistakenly drop
the required publication unless they have some strict rule to do it
immediately after the tool has converted standby to subscriber.
Providing the commands via file is a way, but as a user, I would
prefer to get the things done automatically via a tool instead of me
doing it afterward unless there is no other way..
