This setting was introduced in this commit, and from the context there (docs, tests), it seems clear that the intent is that the flag should apply to non-exec configurations.

When this commit later introduced the documentation being changed here, it seems that it inadvertently misunderstood the flag as applying only to exec configurations, rather than not to exec configurations.
