   As much as I also like `unload`ing topics to resolve mysterious issues, I'd rather pulsar not add additional "band-aid/manual reset" command functionality to work around either misbehaving clients or broker state-corrupting bugs. I think doing that has a short-term benefit of providing a tool for expert operators to use to resolve issues, but has a long-term cost of making brand new adopters of pulsar find it less reliable than they want it to be.
   
   I'm not saying "fix the bugs _instead_" (though we should also fix things!), but rather that building more support code for stuff like this may come at a time/complexity cost with actually fixing the issues that would make a "reset" necessary.
