True. To be fair this is Escanor who is the strongest character in NNT and likely stronger than or as strong as Acnologia. Demons are always classified as unholy in every fiction and holy is the counter/opposite power and is a demons weakness and is generally capable of nullifying their abilities; relative power lvl is of course a factor in a holy-unholy fight, depending on the verse. I do, but the point is why didn't they use dragon force against Mard Geer or Jeimmia two opponents that were stronger than they were and make the fights easier for themselves. Not using water body would have ensured Juvia's death so why not try it anyway on the off chance that it would protect her since it did protect her from laser blasts in the TOH arc.
