The --runAgentConvertExample option makes it easy to run one of the two examples one might want to run to test things from JMC. If I need to do something custom, I might as well just put the built agent jar on the command line and do whatever I want to do. Since the classpath won't be set to anything else, there won't be that many main classes to pick from other than the standard example and the converter example.
