Possible mistake in behavior of "prettier.requireConfig"

From the README file:

The extension is enabled. I don’t have a .prettierrc file. I do have an .editorconfig file.

My settings.json:

When I format a document I expect that prettier not to work (due to the settings). But when I right-click and format the document, the document is formatted and in the Prettier terminal I receive this message:

While the docs mention that using prettier.requireConfig will enable prettier only if a prettier config file is present, the real behavior (and as seen in the terminal message is that prettier is being used if a prettier config or an editorconfig files are present.

I’m working on several projects that some have prettier and some not. I want to use this property (prettier.requireConfig) to enable prettier conditionally only if a .prettierrc is present

Just ran into this issue while taking a look at the mithril project. They have an .editorconfig file but do not appear to use prettier.

It would be nice if the docs clarified that .editorconfig is considered a prettier configuration file by this extension, and to only auto-format on prettier config files specifically, you need to set prettier.useEditorConfig to false.
