Beside that, as far as I remember in J4 the module class suffix is not a suffix anymore which is appended to the class, it is a module class which is added to the class, separated with a space.
correct ... the name of the variable needs to be changed.
A closer look, shows that the issue occurs in the position menu and not in the position sitebar-right for example.

I have used the module mod_custom.
As already stated by @Fedik the suffix is applied by the chrome.
If you look at the template you will see that the menu position has no chrome
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="menu" style="none" />
So thats the explanation and the solution for you would be to change the style="none" to style="html5" in the templates index.php
OR
In the module settings change the style from inherited to html5 (or any other chrome that uses the suffux)

Thanks all
Just want to repeat that this expected behaviour is for me not a good behaviour and I have brought this up before. From my perspective every default setting in a module should function in every module chrome.

Indeed, inconsistent behavior creates confusion. In joomla 3 the top position was included.
In joomla 3 it is duplicated if module chrome is used,
that makes another issue
It exists in module chrome
