You can reuse the saved PaymentMethod on the Subscription, to quietly create one-off PaymentIntent. But honestly I don't get why you would want to manage recurring payments yourself. It's a complicated vs just let Stripe Subscription API do it

Thank you. I agree. They feel that if we have one-off payments and do the timing/triggering of payments ourselves it'll be easier to be "payment gateway neutral" - for future integration of alternative gateways I guess.

If I just start doing PaymentIntents though, then kill the sub, (always same amount) will it stay quiet, do you think? Or is it at some point going to go back to customer for a reconfirm?

Can't say there is no possibility. Recurring payments made by Stripe Subscription engine does have optimization with card network, so in some case it will be exempted by SCA or 3DS
