Reproduction steps

1. At the monorepo handled by pnpm (starting from v11) in pnpm-workspace.yaml set minimumReleaseAge (or remove to use default value of 1440).
2. Try to add the most recent version of some dependency.
3. pnpm just install ignoring minimumReleaseAge setting no matter what set there (or used default).

Describe the Bug

In a monorepo starting from pnpm v11 minimumReleaseAge is ignore minimumReleaseAge setting or if it is not set, it ignores default value of minimumReleaseAge, so it is possible to install the latest version, no matter if its release time respects that setting or not. Tried as update and clean install.

Expected Behavior

pnpm must not allow to install dependencies those are not meet minimumReleaseAge interval specified (or its default value).
