I am going to revert this PR based on the following:

• After it was merged, @matejvasek pointed me out that it probably wont work and he created this PR to do some changes
• I added an acceptance test to check the new flag added, locally it worked but in our CI system we have some constraints summarized in this comment

We will need to wait for the ubuntu runner to update the docker >= 25.0 and we also need to update the windows runner with the same version, Once that is done, I think we can merge again this code + the changes made by @matejvasek and the acceptance test.
