In general, I support with the "N" for all three entries. However, I would like to mention an issue. The very fact that these are in the registry (and they are already there!) may entice developers of constrained devices to prefer, say, MLKEM512 due to its being lighter than standalone X25519, and MUCH lighter than the hybrid mode.
Such devices are the most exposed to side-channel attacks, and often not readily updated once deployed even if a sufficiently efficient LWE attack is found.
