Seemingly inconsistent server/workstation garbage collection documentation

ASP.NET Core apps use server GC by default.

Seems to be contradicted by this...

Default: Workstation garbage collection. This is equivalent to setting the value to false.

Which this answer supports...

If server garbage collection is not enabled, workstation garbage collection is in effect (with or without concurrent collection).

However...

dotnet new web -o web
cd web
dotnet build
Get-Content .\bin\Debug\net6.0\*runtime*.json | Select-String -Pattern GC

...shows...

"System.GC.Server": true,

FWIW, in my dotnet core 3.1 project, editing the csproj to set ServerGarbageCollection to false, does result in both "System.GC.Server": false, in the generated runtime json file and gives the expected result in System.Runtime.GCSettings.IsServerGC during runtime.
