   - `finallyStartTime`- The time at which the PipelineRun's `finally` Tasks, if any, began
   executing, in [RFC3339](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339) format.
 
-### Configuring usage of `TaskRun` and `Run` embedded statuses
-
-Currently, the default behavior is to pupulate `status.childReferences` with references to the `TaskRun`s and
-`Run`s, which can be used to look up their statuses.
-
-This behavior can be controlled by changing the `embedded-status` feature flag in the `feature-flags`
-config map. See [`install.md`](./install.md#customizing-the-pipelines-controller-behavior) for more
-information on feature flags. The possible values for `embedded-status` are:
-- `minimal` - The current default behavior, populate `status.childReferences`, not `status.taskRuns` or `status.runs`.
-- `full` - Populating `status.taskRuns` and `status.runs`, without populating `status.childReferences`.
-- `both` - Populate `status.childReferences` as well as `status.taskRuns` and `status.runs`.
-
-*Note that after the `PipelineRunStatus` migration as planned in [TEP-100](https://github.com/tektoncd/community/blob/main/teps/0100-embedded-taskruns-and-runs-status-in-pipelineruns.md#2-deprecate-and-remove-full-embedded-status),
