.NET8: Ability to not include ref diretory in published single exe file

[NN---]

I am willing to make the smallest possible executable.
The publish single exe adds assemblies from ref directory which are not required to my executable to work well.
Is there any flag which prevents adding them into single exe file ?

I couldn't figure out the best area label to add to this issue. If you have write-permissions please help me learn by adding exactly one area label.

You could disable reference assembly generation by $(ProduceReferenceAssembly).
However there is no flag specifically for published single exe file

[NN---]

I added ProduceReferenceAssembly false , but I still see ref directories.
Anyway it doesn't solve the single-file.
