updating AppIns resource move instructions
The original instructions only targeted classic components. If customers used LA workspace-based components then deleting the original App Insights instance does NOT remove the data, because the data still resides in LA. Customer would have to BOTH delete the original App Ins and LA Workspace to remove the original data. Tweaking step #5 here in a way that helps clear the difference between classic and workspace-based resource move instructions. Think this take does a good job.
