So, are you saying that Get-VM | Get-VMSnapshot | Remove-SnapShot is the same as merging them?

Safi,

Not quite. Merging the checkpoints into a parent disk doesn't delete the AVDX files however, merges the data into the parent disk. It makes the chain of AVHDX files unusable after they are merged. The remove-snapshot operation merges the data into the parent VHDX, and also deletes the differencing disks as well.
