It's not recommended because it is not supported for that purpose, and will
potentially leave you with a lot of broken profiles.  For example, if both
databases have groups with identical names, you'll lose group connections
that don't exist in the first database.  Or if they have users with
identical user IDs, you'll lose the user's group connections that don't
exist in the first database.

And if you have a grouping class in both DBs, and identically-named
profiles, you'll lose member entries that don't exist in the first DB.

I would never recomment that someone use IRRUT400 for this.
