Perhaps I am missing something, but the default NFS Version 3 over TCP.
If that is not available, then the client falls back to NFS Version 3
over UDP, NFS Version 2 over TCP, and then NFS Version 2 over UDP,
in that order.
As far as I can tell, it should not be necessary to specify any mount
options controlling the NFS protocol version or transport choice, unless
you specifically want it to be a single combination and not allow it to
fall back.
All that extra support is just overhead if the mount command is already
doing the right thing.
Thanx...
