How to open a link from a profile in a another profile ?

I have 2 profiles P1 and P2, with different sets of extensions.
P1 is the default profile with a lot of enabled extensions.
P2 is a dedicated profile to the PWA Outlook, with very few extensions.
 
I would like to run the PWA and when I click on a link, Edge with P1 is used to open the page, ie:
- if Edge with P1 is already open, the link is open in a new tab of it.
- if Edge with P1 is not open yet, it is launched, then the link is open in a new tab of it
 
The actual result that Edge with P2 is open in a new window and a new tab.
I do not want Edge with P2 to be open ever, except when I explicitly launch it.
 
I run the default Edge with the following command line:
/usr/bin/microsoft-edge-stable --profile-directory=Default %U
I run the PWA with the following command line:
/usr/bin/microsoft-edge-stable '--profile-directory=Profile 2' --app-id=xxxxxxx %U
 
Is there a way to get this behavior, with profiles, command lines, extensions or any other way ?
 
OS is Linux Artix
Edge version is 110.0.1587.50
