Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the shown mocha.retries configuration, comparing a traditional scenario with a BDD scenario and the Before hook that calls test.retries(3). Trace how retries are transferred from the CodeceptJS config and BDD steps into Mocha. Done means configured retries apply consistently to both scenario styles without one style rewriting the other.

Description
What are you trying to achieve?
The goal is to use retry option from Mocha object in codeceptjs config file for both traditional and BDD steps
I've set up retries option inside Mocha object in codeceptjs config file
mocha: {
retries: 5
},
And it works for traditional scenarios, number of retries are the same as I expect
What do you get instead?
But as soon as I'm using it for BDD scenarios retry doesn't apply for those scenarios and test is executing only once.
From other side, if I use retry in BDD steps
Before(test => {
test.retries(3);
});
traditional scenarios use these retries but not from codeceptjs config file
