I'm using Aikar's Flags for my server but I was wondering if I could replace G1GC with Shenandoah?

I'm not super knowledgeable on the subject, but from what I can gather, Shenandoah is a superior garbage collector. I don't remember where I got it from, but the arguments I have for my client arguments uses Shenandoah, so now I'm wondering if I can use it for the server as well.

The following are the arguments given by Aikar's Flags. What would I need to remove and add to get rid of G1GC and add Shenandoah?

java -Xms8192M -Xmx8192M --add-modules=jdk.incubator.vector -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch -XX:G1HeapWastePercent=5 -XX:G1MixedGCCountTarget=4 -XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=15 -XX:G1MixedGCLiveThresholdPercent=90 -XX:G1RSetUpdatingPauseTimePercent=5 -XX:SurvivorRatio=32 -XX:+PerfDisableSharedMem -XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1 -Dusing.aikars.flags=https://mcflags.emc.gs -Daikars.new.flags=true -XX:G1NewSizePercent=30 -XX:G1MaxNewSizePercent=40 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=8M -XX:G1ReservePercent=20 -jar server.jar --nogui
