The page already showed how --ignore-daemonsets works mechanically, but did not explain why it is safe to skip these Pods. Add a short paragraph noting that DaemonSet Pods are node-local services that must keep running until the node itself is removed, and that the DaemonSet controller pins each Pod to a specific node.
