Initialization commands in FMU and Matlab plant export

Hello I fully do not understand role of initialization commnad during export of control plant from Acar. Adm 711 says in lecture 6, that it is mandatory to define this as:
– The initialization command field uses the ‘file/command’ command to load the special _controls.acf file. This initializes the vehicle model and is essential for proper operation.
 
but here in this article:

they do not use initialization command.
 
My question is during FMI1 or FMI2 export from ACAR, are those Initialization Commands also mandatory using Control/Plant Export?
 
In this article the also do not use them:

    Also I do not understand why from some models i am able to get *.m, _controls.acf, *.inf file. I.E. convertible model from acar_concept database.
     
    Crossover from same database using same procedure did not produce *.m, _controls.acf, *.inf file.
    MDI_demo_vehicle directly from shared database also not. Publishing assembly with everything to private database did not fix this problem.
     
    I was trying to export files from double lane change using files_only Adams 2020 fp1, with same results in win10 and rhel7.5
