You lose nothing with --no-pkinit because you add certificate authority and
enable pkinit later.  But seems it's a relatively new option, we installed
our prod instance back in 2016 and it didn't ask for --no-pkinit at all. I
found it yesterday. Our main instance is running with pkinit disabled and
it do all we want for us. I started to play with pkinit just yesterday.
