Helm Base Chart installation fails for primary-remote multi-cluster

Is this the right place to submit this?

• This is not a security vulnerability or a crashing bug
• This is not a question about how to use Istio

Bug Description

Helm installation fails for the Base chart when remotePilotAddress is set with the following message:

Error: INSTALLATION FAILED: template: base/templates/services.yaml:5:16: executing "base/templates/services.yaml" at <.Values.pilot.enabled>: nil pointer evaluating interface {}.enabled

This is because it expects .Values.pilot.enabled to be a value in the Helm chart even though it isn't: https://github.com/istio/istio/blob/1.22.1/manifests/charts/base/templates/services.yaml#L5.
https://github.com/istio/istio/blob/1.22.1/manifests/charts/base/templates/endpoints.yaml#L6.

Version

Using Istio 1.20 with Helm v3.9.3 but the problem is there with 1.22 as well.
