"The essay should discuss material that is not included in the rest of your application"

When it comes to secondaries, how strictly should I adhere to this request?
I'm writing about my enthusiasm for science education and public outreach for passion/diversity prompts and I've hit a bit of a roadblock. I've already been heavily engaged in this sort of thing and I've listed it in my work/activities (not as a top 3/transformative experience, though) and I'd like to at least reference what I did and how it inspired me in the secondary. Would there be too much overlap if I did this? Thanks in advance.

What do you suppose adcomm opinion will be if you don't follow the instructions in the prompt?
