"New Folder" button missing when selecting folder for New Installation in macOS

When choosing a custom directory location for a new installation of Java Edition in macOS, the standard macOS "New Folder" button is missing in the dialogue window. This could be related to the difference between an "Open" dialogue versus a "Save" dialogue in macOS. However, the function is crippled without the ability to create a new folder as a custom directory location.

Minecraft Launcher version 2.24.17-1.9.2. (Current launcher version not available in the list, so I selected the most recent available under "Affects Version/s".)

Hi!

No repro.
Can you please see view>customize toolbar on finder and check if 'New folder' is selected?
I think it might be macOS changes.

While there is indeed a "New Folder" button option for windows within the Finder, there is no such option in the Open dialogue as presented after clicking "Browse" when creating a new installation from the Launcher. I've attached a new screenshot to show what I'm presented with.

Hi!

Which apps have 'new folder' option in them (as in selecting folder way)?
Does quick time have this? Or maybe Garage band?
Can you show me how other apps windows look like?

As requested, I have added two screenshots of standard application Save dialogue windows from within macOS: QuickTime Player v10.5, and Logic Pro 11.0.1. To reiterate, I am running macOS Ventura v13.5.

EDIT: I have included one more screenshot, from a music program called Finale, which allows you to select the default save location for various files. As you can see in this "Select a Folder" dialogue screenshot (which is more akin to the folder selection dialogue from the Minecraft launcher than a standard Save dialogue) there is also a "New Folder" button present in the expected location.
