Stars operand in CometAlignment vs SXT?

I have switched to using a stars operand in CometAlignment instead of using SXT to remove stars.  I find there are 2 benefits.

1. for my data sets, SXT AI 11 is removing some coma from the comet
2. it's MUCH faster

I let WBPP do integration and pull the stars out of the master per filter and use that as the star operand.  I am modifying my workflow after having recently watched the comet processing in Horizons so I create a _new_ star integration after the comet subtraction.  I have yet to finish this step.  I am curious if anybody else has experience with this alternative and has any downsides to this modification in the workflow.  I do want to sometime take a pass through the sample dataset to compare results.
