CLI Offline mode bw list items timeout error before giving results

[Misterbabou]

Steps To Reproduce

1. Connect with bw CLI
2. Sync the vault
3. Disconnect from internet (or at least to the Bitwarden server)

bw list items

or

bw list items --search <text search for organization item>

6. Result will be output after a long wait (more than 120s) and an error message

Expected Result

Get Json output instantly

For instance:
When I do the same as above but with :

 bw list items --search <text_search for personnal item>

I have the json output instantly

Actual Result

FetchError: request to https://<my_self_host_server>/identity/connect/token failed, reason: connect ETIMEDOUT <my-IP>:443
    at ClientRequest.<anonymous> (/snapshot/clients/node_modules/node-fetch/lib/index.js:1505:11)

Issue Tracking Info

• I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

Edit to my previous message. it might be due to built-in Event logging

I checked:
#7991 (comment)

Is it possible to not try event logging when Bitwarden server not reachable or not online?
Or to have a new option like --noeventlog to disable event log on bw commands
