Thank you for improving these docs!
I believe these constraints exist for both WAN fed "modes" (WAN-fed and WAN-fed over mesh gateway), right? Also I think it might be worth clarifying that currently all DCs must point at the same Vault cluster. That was my assumption, and these docs edits appear to confirm that.
I believe these docs updates are correct for the current implementation, I do wonder if these limitations are actually a bug. I believe I remember @banks saying something a while ago about it should be possible for each DC to use a separate Vault cluster.
I looked at the code, and it does seem like it should be possible for secondary DCs to use separate Vault clusters with a few small code changes, and I believe we've heard reports of users wanting to do that very thing on multiple occasions. I'll bring up that issue with the team to see how we should proceed.
