Why don’t the baptisms in Acts use the trinitarian formula?

At the end of the book of Matthew, we see Jesus’ command for baptism in the name of all three persons of the trinity: > “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭28:19‬ ‭ However, in the book of Acts, there are many instances where baptisms only occur in the name of Jesus: - Acts 2:28 – be baptized…in the name of Jesus Christ. - Acts 8:16 – baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. - Acts 10:48 – baptized in the name of the Lord. - Acts 19:5 – baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. So why the lack of the three persons baptism as explicitly stated by Jesus in Matthew?
