It is would be interesting to learn why you think their reasoning is sound.
Their choice is to kill it because it may be to close to the surface of the ground.
It is possible, that replanting it in a deeper hole is a better option.
If digging a deeper hole and replanting is too difficult, another option is to add more soil above the sucker.
By keeping it alive you retain the option of killing it at a later date.
When reading something this foolish, try to use common sense. "they will more than likely topple over and pull the mother plant over as well"
In 15 years I have never seen this occur so "more than likely" can't be close to accurate.
