I asked a very similar question recently. You should switch to using the package as is and forget that it contains a .war. The war is now an internal component. Also switch to the new script for startup etc.
I have seen several disappointed users that disagree with this decision but I assume the project now has more freedom in the future and also more alignment and focus on one experience. I did my own thing with NSSM because we use windows and I am satisfied.
