Retrieves the Extended Events store object for managing XEvent sessions and configurations
Retrieves the Extended Events store object from SQL Server instances, which serves as the foundation for working with Extended Events sessions, packages, and configurations. The store object provides access to session management, event package information, and running session counts. This is typically the first step when building Extended Events monitoring solutions or auditing XEvent configurations across your environment.

By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.
