Will this method for genomic population structure analysis with VCF file help good for my work?

I was finding method for handling multi-calling VCF file and convert format for analyzing population genomics for fungi, which means dividing species or strains by genotype difference. So I found this site's instruction.

https://speciationgenomics.github.io/pca/

In this manual, they just simply run plink with VCF file and produce eigenval and eigenvec files. These two files make PCA plot with R.

plink --vcf $VCF --double-id --allow-extra-chr --set-missing-var-ids @:# \
--extract cichlids.prune.in \
--make-bed --pca --out cichlids

Does this simple method has no problem with analyzing population genomics and PCA visualizing with fungal multi-calling VCF files?
