Some people, when well-known sources tell them that fire will burn them, don't put their hands in the fire.
Some people, being skeptical, will put their hands in the fire, get burned, and learn not to put their hands in the fire.
And some people, believing that they know better than well-known sources, will claim it's a lie, put their hands in the fire, and continue to scream it's a lie even as their hands burn down to charred stumps.

There's a GUI app called portacle that I have found invaluable for working with keystores. It not only allows you to do maintenance on keystores, you can also do imports, exports, and keytype conversions.
Incidentally, keystore databases are self-contained, so you can easily do offline maintenance and copy them to their proper home. Or create and destroy test keystores until you have what you want. I find this especially useful since my production servers don't run a GUI desktop, so I can use portacle locally and then copy the properly-configured keystore to its production home.

This tool really does make it easier to work with keys and keystores. Sorry I misspelled it. "portacle" is a LISP development system unrelated to Java or keystores. You want portecle with an "e", not an "a".
