Universal Forwarder managed with Powershell

We currently have a deployment server which manages our infrastructure quiye well. A change in our environment is coming where the requirement is to (due to minimal change) make the universal forwarders (these are Windows) unmanaged and for any future changes to be done via a powershell script. My obvious response is no but I wanted to see what other peoples experiences are with not using a deployment server to manage anywhere between 30-40 machines usong scripts such as Powershell. What cons have you found doing it this way when compared to a tried and trusted approach with DS? I can't see any pros with it but I will ask that to.
