`pm2 startup` does not take environment variable `PM2_HOME` into account

[Abreto]

What's going wrong?

When I set PM2_HOME environment variable, the systemd unit file generated by pm2 startup is expected to use the value of PM2_HOME. But it still generates the following without considering my custom value of PM2_HOME

Environment=PM2_HOME=<my home>/.pm2
PIDFile=<my home>/.pm2/pm2.pid

How could we reproduce this issue?

export PM2_HOME="/some/new/path"
pm2 startup # Add --preserve-env='PM2_HOME' to generated sudo command
systemctl cat pm2-$(id -nu).service
