It can be a documentation one. Again, having to say the filesystem
type really looks like "I'll be formating it as such". Since there's
an existing filesystem that, by default, the partitioner will not
overwrite, there is no sense in asking the filesystem type. Maybe simply
adding "Use existing filesystem" in the list of filesystem choices?
