Looking into the documentation (https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.3/service_mesh/service_mesh_install/removing-ossm.html#ossm-control-plane-remove_removing-ossm), I noticed that it doesn't mention that we need to remove the control plane first (although it is implicit because of the order) before removing the operators.

Because if we remove the operators first, the control plane crs and other related crds are going to be on the "hanging" state because it is waiting for the finalizers.

I don't know if that needs to sit on openshift-documentation or service-mesh documentation.
