The documentation for this method and this parameter need further clarification. It is undocumented which fields of the description are replaced and how.
For instance: a perplexing bug arises when replacing taskmanager.submit_tasks(raptor_description) with pilot.submit_raptors(raptor_description) if the raptor_description uses an executable with a different command line interface than expected. The executable field is left alone, but the arguments are replaced by submit_raptors without warning.
