[Samba] please confirm: sssd not a good idea :)

Hi all,
when you join a linux server to an active directory with "realm" it uses
"sssd" as default. This works well as long as you just want to be a
simple domain member.
As soon as you want a real member server, with acls for example, you
need winbind instead of sssd. You can't even connect to or configure
your server with "net rpc" without using winbind, right?
As Rowland pointed out in another thread, a Samba 4.8.0+ domain member
needs winbind anyway.
Could you please confirm that I finally got it right and that the use of
"sssd" should be avoided except for basic authentication and that for
serious samba servers "winbind" is the only (correct and supported) way
to go?
thank you,
Uwe
