Description

@rpalcolea Seems like a regression issue introduced with v14.1.0, rather than an intentional change?

Research direction

Start by locating the generateGlobalLock implementation and checking how the includeTransitives option is handled. Reproduce the behavior with includeTransitives=false and compare it with the behavior introduced in v14.1.0. Done means the option no longer includes transitive dependencies when disabled, with a regression test covering that case.
