It is recommended to create the subscription

I am not completely sure of this part of the docs as this can add
additional steps for users while working on subscriptions even when
the same is not required. I suggest for now we can remove this part.
Later based on some feedback on this feature, we can extend the docs
if required.
Also, instead of having it as a separate section, let's keep this as
part of create_subscription.sgml
*
+ errhint("Verify that initial data copied from the publisher tables
did not come from other origins. Some corrective action may be
necessary."));
The second sentence in this message doesn't seem to be required.
