Query: How to get report generator reading arguments from .netconfig

dotnet reportgenerator does not appear to be reading arguments from .netconfig in current working directory. Instead it displays usage information in the console. What am I doing wrong?

Name of .netconfig file = .netconfig

Contents of .netconfig file

[ReportGenerator]
	reports = "/Users/me/Development/Dotnet/CamFrontEnd/Tests/**/coverage.cobertura.xml"
	targetdir = "/Users/me/Development/Dotnet/CamFrontEnd/CoverageReports"
	reporttypes = HtmlSummary
	assemblyfilters = -Minio;-WebApp.Testing.Utils;-WebApp.Testing.Mocks;-xunit.*;-WebApp.Blazor.UnitTests;-Bunit.*;-Humanizer
	classfilters = -Cyotek.Collections.Generic.*

Output from dotnet reportgenerator
