 Each endpoint within an EndpointSlice can contain relevant topology information.

 ## Using EndpointSlices
 
 With EndpointSlices fully enabled in your cluster, you should see corresponding
 EndpointSlice resources for each Endpoints resource. In addition to supporting
-existing Endpoints functionality, EndpointSlices include new bits of information
-such as topology. They will allow for greater scalability and extensibility of
-network endpoints in your cluster.
