Thanks for the PR.

I have added some inline feedback.

Across the article overall, the headings (but not the blog article title) should be in sentence case.
Example: "Core concepts and features" not "Core Concepts and Features".

What happens if they have used this key but with the value "true"?

The taint block in the rule spec defines the exact taint (key, value and effect) that the controller will apply to a node when its custom readiness conditions are not met.
