Overwriting system values

[Bilge]

dotenv specifically has an option (override), disabled by default, to control whether the .env file overwrites any existing system values. dotenv-webpack does not have such an option, and its behaviour appears to be to overwrite by default; the opposite of dotenv. At the very least, there should be an option to control this behaviour, but I would expect the defaults to match also.

Here is my config

           new Dotenv({
                path: path.join(__dirname, 'js.env.local'),
                defaults: path.join(__dirname, 'js.env'),
                expand: true,
            }),

It seems this can be worked around by specifying systemvars: true, but this brings other problems with it:
