Looks good. I suggested a couple of minor formatting changes, plus:
- In the Compatibility table above, I think we should remove "Generates runtime-id granularity" from each tab now, since it's addressed in the new configuration description?
- Not strictly related but in that table we could also remove the "Support Level", just keeping it for Python since it's in Preview? (I think users should expect everything in docs to be GA unless otherwise stated)

[optional] did we want to go with "enhanced runtime metrics" here to be more enticing for our users to use it?

[optional] consider inverting the definition here to make true appear more as the intended behavior
