https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3014 introduces --config-file option instead of --config path combined with -m, -t and -p flags. So now we can have single parameter that specifies node config file instead of two separate parameters, e.g. here we can replace {{ neogo__conf_dir }} and {{ neogo__network }} with some single {{ neogo__conf_file }}:
nspcc-dev/ansible-neogo-n3@5a3da674a6/templates/docker-compose.yml.j2 (L14)

There may be a set of other cases where it can be applied.

Can be implemented after 0.102.0 NeoGo release.

These are the flags telling the NeoGo nodes what's the desired node configuration file in the node config folder. -m for mainnet config, -t for testnet and -p for privnet. With --config-file option you don't need these flags and can directly specify the node configuration file, that's the point of this task.

Why you shouldn't?
