experimentalTernaries not respected using prettier-vscode plugin

[DoctorPolski]

Summary

I am using this plugin with a .prettierrc file in the root of my React project. The only option I have set in that file is "experimentalTernaries": true

{
  "experimentalTernaries": true
}

Whilst any other option I have tested in that file works, experimentalTernaries does not.

Github Repository to Reproduce Issue

None.

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Enable "experimentalTernaries": true as an option
2. Format a document (in my case *.jsx) that contains a suitable ternary
3. I have taken the following example from A curious case of the ternaries:

const animalName =
  pet.canBark() ?
    pet.isScary() ?
      'wolf'
    : 'dog'
  : pet.canMeow() ? 'cat'
  : 'probably a bunny';

Expected result

const animalName =
  pet.canBark() ?
    pet.isScary() ?
      'wolf'
    : 'dog'
  : pet.canMeow() ? 'cat'
  : 'probably a bunny';

Actual result

const animalName = pet.canBark()
  ? pet.isScary()
    ? "wolf"
    : "dog"
  : pet.canMeow()
  ? "cat"
  : "probably a bunny";

Additional information

The prettier console in VS Code clearly shows the .prettier file that it has parsed:

["INFO" - 1:36:16 PM] Using ignore file (if present) at <redacted>/.prettierignore
["INFO" - 1:36:16 PM] File Info:

  "filepath": "<redacted>/text.jsx",
  "parser": "babel",
  "experimentalTernaries": true
}
["INFO" - 1:36:16 PM] Formatting completed in 9ms.

The same result is observed regardless of the boolean state.

Same for me. I think it should be a checkbox inside settings for this.
