Filebeat setup kibana dashboard: limit to enabled modules

When I enable a module https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/configuration-filebeat-modules.html like this, and run the filebeat setup command, the kibana dashboards for ALL default modules are created, resulting in a lot of unused / useless dashboards.

How to limit the dashboard created by setup to enabled modules ?

sudo filebeat modules list
Enabled:
haproxy
Disabled:
activemq
apache
auditd
aws
azure
cef
checkpoint
cisco
coredns
crowdstrike
elasticsearch
envoyproxy
fortinet
googlecloud
ibmmq
icinga
iis
iptables
kafka
kibana
logstash
misp
mongodb
mssql
mysql
nats
netflow
nginx
o365
okta
osquery
panw
postgresql
rabbitmq
redis
santa
suricata
system
traefik
zeek

But not only haproxy is created, all modules have a dashboard now in my kibana.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to limit the amount of dashboards loaded to Kibana. All dashboards are loaded when running setup.
