Interior Acrylic paint WITHOUT the Primer added

What lines of the big-name paints– Benjamin-Moore, Dunn-Edwards, Sherwin Williams, [Big-box] Behr and Valspar— are available without an added primer?
I’m not a fan of the primer+ paint club… I do painting in 3 steps: Prep, Prime, Paint.
Yet it’s driving me crazy trying to find “plain paint”.
I found the B-M’s Ultra Spec is paint without primer (but I don’t know if I can get it in the Phoenix area).
What else is out there in the way of interior acrylic no-primer-added paint?
(And, please, no suggestions of waterborne alkyd paints) Thanks

You can still use a primer and the primer-paint combination. I love the stuff. When acrylic first came out in the sixties no one would use it either.
