I've used wireguard; I don't currently have it setup on your identical 
situation.

wg is a protocol for VPN.  I've used wg w/ the free Proton VPN.  wg 
appears in a menu in the network connections of NM as a connection type 
option to create.

In the case of Proton VPN, they have instructions for setting up a linux 
vpn connxn using either openvpn or wg, and I've done both.

That is a 'sensible' approach to preparing to use a vpn w/ wg.

There are other ways to enable wg capabilities if you don't yet have a 
'sensible plan' for using wg.  Is that what you want to do?  Or are you 
just 'wondering' why wireguard should appear in any part of the NM?
