Describe the problems in the documentation
The phoneHomeEnabled flag is documented as a one-liner ("Enable phone-home on first boot") across all three files above. Users who encounter this flag have no way to understand what it actually does without reading source code.
This came up from an ISV trying to delay instance's Ready status until cloud-init finishes applying SSH keys and passwords. The cloud-init behavior is not documented anywhere in public docs.
Specific gaps:
- No explanation of what happens mechanically when the flag is set
- No documentation of what NICo injects into user-data when the flag is enabled
- No guidance on what users should and should not do when using this feature
