Hi @razz
Not sure, if this is still a concern, but here is what worked for me.
Just removing event listener that caused ignoring of validation.
Put this in your JS

acf.addAction('prepare', function(){
    acf.validation.removeEvents({
        'click #save-post': 'onClickSave',
    });
});

or if you don’t know how or where, add this to your functions.php

add_action('acf/input/admin_footer', function(){
    ?>
    <script>
        acf.addAction('prepare', function(){
            acf.validation.removeEvents({
                'click #save-post': 'onClickSave',
            });
        });
    </script>
    <?php
}, 10);
