If \d doesn't say anything then the table is in the database's default
tablespace.  I see nothing wrong with that, and I do object to
cluttering \d output with information that will be of no interest to
people not using tablespaces.

I wouldn't object to adding default tablespace to \l output, or maybe \l+.
