Next.js - router.push with scroll: false still scrolls

I am attempting to add parameters to the URL after navigating to the current page using router.push. However, I don't want the page to scroll to the top after the parameters are added. To prevent this, I am using scroll: false, but unfortunately, it’s not working as expected.

Below is my code:

"use client";

import { useRouter } from "next/navigation";

const MyComponent = ({ pageNumber }) => {

    const router = useRouter();

    useEffect(() => {
        if (!pageNumber || pageNumber === null || pageNumber === "") {
            router.push(`?pageNumber=1`, undefined, { shallow: true, scroll: false });
        }
    }, []);
}

In Next.js 13.5 and above the syntax has changed. The function properties object now comes second.

Before Next.js 13.5:

  router.push("<new_url>", undefined, { scroll: false })

Next.js 13.5 and above:

router.push("<new_url>", { scroll: false })
