5.2.1 Discovering Service Endpoints - this seemed to jump out of "nowhere" #177

In 5.2.1 Discovering Service Endpoints, it states:

A website may provide service endpoint discovery by embedding JSON-LD in their top-most HTML web page (e.g. at https://example.com/):

To me, this describes some somewhat ill-defined, web client, application-specific, capability/functionality - I don't think it belongs in the EDV specification?

If this is supposed to be some sort of "server instance endpoint registry" capability, the above remark still applies.

Isn't this best implemented some other way (e.g. using DID Documents for service instance endpoint)?

Please confirm: this feature is describing a server instance service endpoint discovery mechanism for (server instances) ...that is, not intended to be the same for data vaults themselves (a different level in the EDV architecture).
