Upgrading to High Sierra without AFPS?

[celebi23]

So, I'm finally upgrading to High Sierra from Sierra (got a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015))
and have heard of the issues with Boot Camp and AFPS (not being able to select a Mac partition from the Boot Camp tool within Windows).

I just wanted to make sure that these are the proper commands to accomplish this:

sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ High\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ macOS\ High\ Sierra.app --agreetolicense --converttoapfs NO --nointeraction

Am I missing anything or am I good to go?

This is exactly why I did postpone my upgrade to High Sierra so far. El Capitan is really the most functional OS I ever had. Is there any safety issue I need to be aware of by NOT switching to High Sierra in the long run?
Why does Apple trash boot camp functionality in High Sierra?

1. No problems with APFS here:

2. Not sure why you want macOS partition available in BootCamp. Seems like any data-files (you wish to be share-able) would be stored in a more appropriate location.
