Hi,

It would seem that since you have created the org-wide GitHub - NixOS/.github: org-level github configuration, GitHub has automatically added a new item to the choose menu:

There is a sort of redundancy between “Security report” and “Report a security vulnerability”. Furthermore, the “security report” template is confusing because it tells the user to not open an issue, but it gives the template, and the user is just one click away from posting the issue publicly. So I would suggest removing the “Security report” template, and moving its content to the SECURITY.md file in GitHub - NixOS/.github: org-level github configuration.

Fixed! Thanks for the feedback, very helpful.
