Under 'Passive mode' i would think that nothing is been send out of the WLAN card and the card is just listening.

It looks like when you implemented the PMKID capture mode, you have not renamed this. Because hcxdumptool is not been run in passive mode. Its the whole time sending out packages out of the interface.

Maybe you could rename --nodeauths to --passive-mode or just --passive. Then it would make more sense to be named a passive mode. In this mode then there should be no traffic going out of the network interface.
