Description
While @analytics/google-tag-manager should add only gtm.js script, I see in my HTML also gtag.
I'm not sure it's a part of the package, since I wasn't able to find any evidence in the source code of the library, but I am curious, why gtm adds gtag as well. Due to this fact, the performance of the page is affected.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported HTML output with @analytics/google-tag-manager and inspect the package source for where gtm.js and gtag are added. Compare the generated scripts with the issue's expectation that only gtm.js is present. Done means the source of the extra gtag script is identified and the package behavior is corrected or clearly explained.
