Description

Hey 👋
When I try to build react-native@nightly app on CI I receive error:

yarn react-native run-ios --simulator 'iPhone 14 Pro'                                            
yarn run v1.22.19
$ /Users/piaskowyk/sandbox/N1/node_modules/.bin/react-native run-ios --simulator 'iPhone 14 Pro'
error: unknown option '--simulator'
error Command failed with exit code 1.
info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/run for documentation about this command.

I need to specific --simulator option because GitHub Actions Runner by defaults try to open app on AppleTV simulator 🫣

It seems to be related to #2078 and #2086

Reproducible Demo

npx react-native init AppName --version nightly
yarn react-native run-ios --simulator 'iPhone 14 Pro'

Hey @piaskowyk 👋

By mistake we deleted this flag, and nightly version uses version without it. I created PR with update in Core.

That's strange, and we should fix it. I'll take a look at this 🙌
