The proposal is to add "WPA3-Personal Transition Mode" to the list so that Pi can connect to Routers configured in WPA2/WPA3 mixed mode. Anyone that configures a Router that way should know whats going on.
When RaspiOS gets around to supporting WPA3 the protocol options can be revisited.
It's really not any more complex than that.
It's a matter of taste in the end, I'm just sharing as a consumer, it would be the only device in my house where I would actively need to select the right security protocol to be able to connect to wifi, none of my other devices asked more than SSID and Password or had any issues connecting to WPA2/WPA3 mixed mode.
If you're going to add the extra option to the dropdown just be sure to use this configuration then:
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK-SHA256
ieee80211w=2
