Can I create a Mobile Map Package with metadata using ArcPy?

I was attempting to figure out why my metadata does not seem to carry over when I packed my layers as a mobile map package(.mmpk). When I check my package with python using the arcpy.da.Describe() method it returns a bunch of values pertaining to my map package and the one that caught my eye was "metadataRetrieved" which was set to False. I don't see anywhere where I can tell ArcPro to keep the layer's metadata. 

Is there a way I can create the mmpk through python and manually set that metadataRetrieved value to True? Does this value even have anything to do with the layer's metadata?

Any advice on creating a Mobile Map Package with metadata would be greatly appreciated.
