$PSNativeCommandUseErrorActionPreference is an experimental feature in 7.3+, its likely it was never added to be excluded from that rule

@bergmeister is there a list of variables that this rule ignores that this could be added to?

[bergmeister]

@StevenBucher98 Yes, you just need to add it to AutomaticVariables and AutomaticVariableTypes here

The feature is no longer experimental.
