We are running into the exact same problem. The watch: false flag also isn't being respected when we run a node executor via CLI.

[PodStuart]

Any idea when this might be fixed? We've not been able to update since this was introduced.

[wewelll]

We have the same issue with the latest NX version (19.6.5)

[PodStuart]

Any plans to fix this? We're falling quite far behind latest now.

Still stuck on Nx version 19.5.7 here. Has anybody managed to work around this?
