WRT to flag ENABLE_INGRESS_WAYPOINT_ROUTING, the docs read that

If true, Gateways will call service waypoints if the 'istio.io/ingress-use-waypoint' label set on the Service.

that by default this is set to false. However, this was different than what I experienced, since labeling a namespace with ingress-use-waypoint: true was working without any configurion in an Ambient installation. When I asked in istio slack, I got the response that

The feature is now enabled by default when installing with the ambient enabled
...
Enabling ambient mode also includes a number of features which are relevant to ambient functioning

IMO this information is crucial and should be part of the ambient docs.
