Setting subscriber with an alias

I have an scenario of Transactional Replication, where we replicate from our remote servers to our HQ Server. This HQ Server has a Database Mirroring implementation to a third server. I've found that when I do a Failover, I can restart the replication creating a new subscription using the LSN and dropping the previous subscription after marking the "allow initialization from backup files" in the publication as it is stated in the doc: SQL SERVER Replication: Providing High Availability using Database Mirroring. But recently I've found that using an SQL Server Alias with the name of the previously Principal Server the replication continues without problem. Is there any problem of using this solution instead of recreating the subscription?
