It means each time we update the Endpoint Security client, there won't necessarily be an update to the documentation.

That because these updates, which are coming more frequently, are primarily about fixing bugs and improving compatibility rather than adding new features.

That said, if a major feature is added, that will be added to the release notes and/or the documentation set will be updated.
