+- **Failure Message Field:** The `ResourceHealth` struct includes an optional `Message` field that provides
+  additional human-readable context about device health status. This field enables Device Plugins and DRA drivers
+  to report detailed error information, failure reasons, and diagnostic information beyond the basic health status.
+  This enhancement improves troubleshooting capabilities for device-related failures. See
+  [Issue #133202](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/133202) and
+  [PR #134506](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134506) for implementation details.
+
+- **Device Health for Terminated Pods:** Kubelet will continue to update the device health status in PodStatus
+  even after a Pod has terminated (e.g., in Failed state or CrashLoopBackOff). This is critical for post-mortem
+  troubleshooting and enables retry policies (such as those introduced by
+  [KEP-3329: Retriable and non-retriable Pod failures for Jobs](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3329))
+  to make informed decisions based on whether the failure was caused by an unhealthy device. See
+  [Issue #132978](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/132978) for more details.

+Yes, with no side effect except of missing the new field in pod status. When the feature is disabled,
+the values of the `AllocatedResourcesStatus` fields will be dropped when serving the API even if they
+are written to storage. This prevents clients from acting on potentially stale data when the feature
+is off. Values written while the feature was enabled may be wiped on next update request.
 Re-enablement of the feature will not guarantee to keep the values written before the
 feature was disabled.
 
 ###### What happens if we reenable the feature if it was previously rolled back?

+The pod status will be updated again. When the feature is re-enabled, there may be a brief period
+where stale values from storage reappear in the API before kubelet and controllers actuate and update
+the values with current device health information. This period should be kept as short as possible
+through normal kubelet reconciliation. Consistency will not be guaranteed for fields written
 before the last enablement.
