The instant vector documentation does not explain which metric samples are selected - in particular, it makes no reference to staleness. It's confusing when reading the docs to understand how exactly Prometheus selects the metrics to report: the most recent sample older than the search timestamp specified in the API request, so long as that metric is not "stale".
