This is fairly self-explanatory, but to make things crystal clear
you could add an explanatory note about how this option should be used,
something like:
To avoid wasting resources unnecessarily, MCPM only supports up
to 2 clusters by default.
Platforms with 3 or 4 clusters that use MCPM must select this
option to allow the additional clusters to be managed.
