Acceptor role is required to sign if an available signature box is available

[defaultrs1j9d7izz7l]

I have a form with a number of signature fields for different people depending on the use of the form.

There could be 3 people with required signatures, or up to 6 signatures (the last 3 being optional fields).

The issue arrives when there is 3 (less than 6) required signatures, and the 4th recipient is the "Acceptor" role.  When the form gets to the "Acceptor", there are 3 signatures, and 3 un-used (optional) signature boxes, but the Acceptor gets assigned the first avaiable signature box.

The end goal is to get the required number of signatures, and have the acceptor "accept/finalize" the document without needing to sign or interact directly with the docuement.

from the Adobe documentation:
```

Acceptor (enterprise)

Acceptors are mechanically the same as Approvers in that they do not need to apply a signature, but if form fields are assigned to them, they will be available as you would expect.

The Acceptor role is appropriate when the Recipient needs to acknowledge an acceptance of the Agreement without formally approving the content.
```

I also tried this with the roles:
"Certified Recipient"
"Approver"
and both of these gave the same results.  Im not sure if this is a bug, or intended behavior.

additional info.

All signature fields are assigned to the "SignerX" role where X is the number/order assigned when added to the recipient list.. ie:
Signer1
Signer2
Signer3
...etc...
