The jwks description at https://openid.net/specs/openid-federation-1_0-ID4.html#name-entity-statement says:

The public keys are used to verify the signatures of the issued Entity Statements and Trust Marks and SHOULD NOT be used in other protocols.

As @peppelinux wrote about this "we have also resolve response, historical keys response and so on. All about trust uses the federation entity keys".

We need to correct this description so readers don't think that Entity Statements and Trust Marks are the only things that Federation Entity Keys are used for.
