Run elasticsearch without initial master nodes configured

Hi! i have 3 node cluster ( 7.16.2 ) with this config
( example from first node )

cluster.name:  sactions
cluster.routing.allocation.awareness.attributes: zone
cluster.routing.allocation.awareness.force.zone.values: zone1,zone2,zone3
node.name: elastic-01
node.attr.zone: zone1
node.master: true
node.data: true
node.ingest: true
path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch
path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch
network.host:  172.17.5.3
discovery.seed_hosts:
   -  172.17.5.3
   -  172.17.5.4
   -  172.17.5.5
   

cluster.initial_master_nodes:
   -  172.17.5.3
   -  172.17.5.4
   -  172.17.5.5
xpack.security.enabled: false

for ease of deployment through ansible, I want to remove the cluster.initial_master_nodes configuration
what could be the consequences?
