Rendering to a non declared custom format silently renders to quarto default format

> quarto use template quarto-journals/acs

Quarto templates may execute code when documents are rendered. If you do not
trust the authors of the template, we recommend that you do not install or
use the template.

Then rendering to acs-html does "work" as no warning or error is thrown but

• html is not defined in the _extensions.yml
• document is rendered to HTML without using the common information defined in _extensions.yml (like the CSL file)

So it seems if the format is not explicitly defined, it will just pass through to main one, here HTML

  abstract: |
    This is an example document for the _achemso_ documentclass, intended for submissions to the American Chemical Society for publication. The class is based on the standard LaTeXe _report_ file, and does not seek to reproduce the appearanceof a published paper.
    This is an abstract for the _achemso_ document class demonstration document.  An abstract is only allowed for certain manuscript types.  The selection of `journal` and `manuscript` will determine if an abstract is valid.  If not, the class will issue an appropriate error.This is the abstract.

I believe it should error if we expect to have explicitly a defined format in the extensions i.e at least adding html: default

Or we should at least use the common information in format as someone passing explicitly a custom format e.g acs-html would expect that (I was)
