method argument not working on slice()

When specifying the interpolation method using the method input argument, where method can be 'linear' (the default), 'cubic', or 'nearest', such interpolation method isn't being applied.

[X,Y,Z] = meshgrid(-2:2);
V = X.*exp(-X.^2-Y.^2-Z.^2);
xslice = 0.8;   
yslice = [];
zslice = [];
slice(X,Y,Z,V,xslice,yslice,zslice,'nearest')


fig2plotly(gcf, 'offline', false);

Expected and generated (https://chart-studio.plotly.com/~xarico10/1043/#/) plots:

Also, as seen, the expected plot is a 4x4 surface. That grid division isn't happening in Plotly.
