-    Removing the cert-manager causes problems and potentially brings the system
-    to an unrecoverable state. Removal deletes all certificates and related logs,
-    requiring the system to be reinstalled.
+    The cert-manager is a mandatory application and cannot be removed using the
+    ``system application-remove`` command . Forced removal of cert-manager (using
+    the ``-force`` option) deletes all certificates, leaving the system is an
+    unrecoverable state and requiring a system reinstall.
