Using quarto profile leads to language version not being able to rendered

Currently, in order to render only few chapters of the book for testing purpose, I need to comment on chapters in _quarto.yml file. It might not be the optimal way, as you may want to have different profiles that tweak specifically just some params in the config file. The solution is using quarto PROJECT profile. However, babelquarto::render_book() doesn't render language chapters although it tries to loop through languages vector (instead of index.fr.qmd, it renders index.qmd again). So I guess there was something wrong when it tries to catch the language params? Here is the content of _quarto.yml file

project:
  type: book
  output-dir: html_outputs

profile:
   default: small
   group: 
     - [full, small]

babelquarto:
  languagecodes:
  - name: vn

and in _quarto-small.yml, I specify chapters I want to render
