Hi, setting NODE_ENV to staging instead of the default values we set is not ideal as this will cause things to potentially mismatch

~One case of where this will cause problems is when bundling react if you set NODE_ENV to a value other than production during a production build the development bundle will be used, see here for related code~

EDIT: It looks we override this value during bundling so the above isn’t a concern although can lead to mismatches due to not overriding with next start or when loading Babel or Next configs
