It was suggested in the past (both at the mailing list and at github), but the decision was made not to include this option since the use case for that combination was unclear. At the same time, keeping the number of algorithms to a minimum was considered beneficial.

What would be the use case for that code point?

For context, there are currently four such supported groups for TLS:
X25519, X448, P-256, and P-384. Is there a substantive reason why the

I was just drafting a message to suggest that the draf is missing an
obvious combination:

     MLKEM1024 + X448

If MLKEM1024 is supported with SecP384r1 (P-384), it should also be
supported with X448.  The supported combinations would then be more
"natural":

     MLKEM768 + either P-256 or X25519
     MLKEM1024 + either P-384 or X448
