      Regarding the documentation on running HCP on OpenShift Virtualization, the first statement mentions that the hosting and hosted platforms do not need to be the same, while the latter documentation states that they must be the same platform, causing confusion for users.

      https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_advanced_cluster_management_for_kubernetes/2.11/html/clusters/cluster_mce_overview#hosted-control-requirements

      However, the hub cluster and workers do not need to run on the same platform. For example, you might run your hosting cluster on bare metal and workers on OpenShift Virtualization. 
      

      https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_advanced_cluster_management_for_kubernetes/2.11/html/clusters/cluster_mce_overview#hosted-control-planes-manage-kubevirt

      Run the hub cluster and workers on the same platform for hosted control planes. 

      In OpenShift Virtualization, a configuration where the hosting cluster runs on bare metal and the hosted cluster runs on VMs is supported. In one sense, the platforms could be considered different as bare metal and VMs, but in a broader sense, they are operating on the same OCP-V platform. The wording should be rephrased to avoid user confusion.
