Measure Tool Units of Measure - Missing Acres?

We have just migrated from the HTML5 viewer to the Studio Web and have some users complaining about the units of measure. I thought at first maybe there was a typo in the units for Acres (showing as “Ares”):
 

 

But after a quick calculation, I don't believe this is a typo. Ares must be a unit of measure (I am just not familiar with it). Are there plans to include Acres? Or how can I add Acres into the unit of measure? The HTLM5 Viewer had these units of measure available, why have some been removed from Studio web?

  If you change the Measurement System to US Customary, Acres are available as unit.

  

  The Measurement System to use can be saved as a User Preference.

  Thanks Nico, 
  
  I see that now. But users can't use Metric (meters) and Acres together. Our users were used to be able to choose Meters as the line and Acres as the area.

  Modify your Measure Area command to a custom command, add the measurement.set-area-units command to explicitly set the araa units, like the example below.

  [
   {
     "name": "measurement.set-area-units",
     "arguments": "acres"
   },
   {
     "name": "measurement.capture-geometry",
     "arguments": {
       "geometryType": [
         "polygon",
         "polyline"
       ],
       "pluginSettings": {
         "snapping": true
       }
     }
   },
   "measurement.create-graphics",
   "map.add-markup"
  ]
