Is this required? Couldn't they use our published AMIs for the guide and if they need to do this on multiple clusters they'd have to create custom AMIs with labels for the machine classes.

We also need to mention if they are autoscaling from on-prem they need to patch the cluster to enable kubespan so the nodes can talk to each other.
