TypeFile is not correct here - from the docs, TypeFile = "Files (i.e. non map layer sources, such as text files)". There's actually no way to show only Point layers OR Geometry-less tables. The closest is TypeVector, which will show all vector sources, including points/line/polygons AND no geometry tables. But -- I'd question why you'd want to restrict your algorithm inputs to Point/NoGeometry only in the first place. If your algorithm can work with NoGeometry tables, it should also work with inputs with Lines and Polygon geometries, and just ignore those. Otherwise you're putting an artificial limitation on the inputs which can be used, which is sure to annoy users somewhere down the line!
