samba - Aug 2024 - samba-tool user add - weird resulting

When creating AD user using 'samba-tool user add <username> ...',
there are switches for some human name parts specification:
  --surname=SURNAME          User's surname
  --given-name=GIVEN_NAME    User's given name
  --initials=INITIALS        User's initials

and samba-tool (or Samba daemon itself?) assembles other (LDB) attributes
from them:

dn :          as "$GIVEN_NAME $INITIALS $SURNAME,OU=...,DC=..."
displayName : as "$GIVEN_NAME $INITIALS $SURNAME"
name :        as "$GIVEN_NAME $INITIALS $SURNAME"

Despite that the insertion of initials into any of the derived attributes
seems stupid to me, would like to have the values ??of these attributes
different.
Is this somehow possible?
Doesn't samba-tool have any hidden switches for this?

A Samba AD DC tries its best to emulate what a Windows DC does and this
is what a Windows DC does if you supply the users initials. I you do
not want the user accounts created with the initials, then do not
supply them.

No, you an see all the switches with 'samba-tool used add --help'
