Hi!
I don't understand why generating a key on a smartcard only offers Curve25519
and P-384 for ECC cryptography unless the --expert flag is used.
P-384 is offered even when the hardware key doesn't support it and other curves
which the hardware supports are not offered which is confusing.
Why
Hi!
Please share your GnUPG version and the type of smartcard you are using
with us. A 9 year old commit is not very helpful.
I'm using gpg 2.2.36 and a OpenPGP smart card implementation we are currently
developing.
You're right the commit itself isn't very helpful, here are is the code

Only experts will be able to make an educated decision between P-256 and
P-384. It's good to give "normal" people less choice by default because more
choice will just confuse them even more. Even having to choose between
Curve25519 and P-384 will be too much
