This works, and is simple.

I think I would rather populate the available mask here
with a mask containing the actual version-specific available
endpoints. On the other hand, looking at the downstream code,
it looks like almost any of these endpoints could be used.

So, while I don't know for sure the all-1's value here is
*correct*, it's more of a validation check anyway, so it's
probably fine
