In fact there is an INI option to reactivate RoutePlanner, the other pathfinder algorithm, so that it can be selected from the advanced menu. And this is also where the selection box makes sense then. However, I suggested to remove this algorithm of the choices the advanced menu offers since it is known to cause problems, and users should thus not be able to choose it unless they really know what they are doing (to an extent where they know the INI option name and set it in their .ini).
