wp-cron.php is there a missing parameter in cronjob?

[Iolomot]

Server operating system version

Almalinux 8.10

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.67

Howdy I noticed that the cronjob created by Plesk to replace the default Wordpress one does not have the "doing_wp_cron" parameter.
Why?
Shouldn't it run /wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron in this case?

The doing_wp_cron parameter is only used in conjunction with the ALTERNATE_WP_CRON option. Plesk doesn't use the ALTERNATE_WP_CRON option, rather it disables the build-in WP cron all together with the DISABLE_WP_CRON option and instead calls the wp-cron.php page directly via a scheduled task (cron job). Which is, in most cases, the most reliable and efficient way the handle the WP cron.
