- Made legacy watch calls (`ResourceVersion` = 0 or unset) that generate init-events weigh higher in `API Priority and Fairness (APF)` seat usage. Properly accounting for their cost protects the API server from CPU overload. Users might see increased throttling of such calls as a result.

- The kube-proxy `sync_proxy_rules_iptables_total` metric has now reverted back
  to its pre-1.27 behavior of tracking the total number of iptables rules that
  kube-proxy is responsible for, rather than only counting the number of rules
  that it re-synced on the last sync. The new `sync_proxy_rules_iptables_last`
