Why does the 'open file' dialog contain an 'options' button on some devices but not others?

I‘m using
(run it on [CodePen](https://codepen.io/jmayer/pen/PoJvYLm) to test it). in my web page to allow the user to select an image file. In the first picture you can see the options button is the lower left corner. In the second picture you can see the options available after clicking the options button. enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here The options button for the open file dialog is confirmed visible on mac devices with the following specs
Mac(Big Sur / 11.6.1): Chrome(96.0.4664.93)
Mac(Monterey / 12.0.1): Chrome(97.0.4692.71)
It is confirmed not visible on a mac device with the following spec
Mac(Big Sur / 11.6), Chrome(Version 97.0.4692.71)
Without more specs the absence of an options button has been confirmed on one more mac device, and the presence of the options button has been confirmed on an additional mac device. Any insight into why this options button seems inconsistent across mac devices when using Chrome? We discovered this inconsistency when testing an html form with a file input. Thanks
