Can't still use db.t3.small instance by modify Aurora RDS

Question

Hello. I have had database instance Aurora Mysql v1 with db.t3.small type. I decided to upgrade it to v.2 using Modify features. I successfully finished it. Next step I need to upgrade this DB from v.2 to v.3 but using a snapshot like in the manual.

So, unfortunately, when I try to restore a snapshot to change version of Aurora MYSQL to 3 I can't select db.t3.small type, the minimum power is db.t3.medium. Any restriction present?

Refer to the documentation [here](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/Concepts.DBInstanceClass.html#Concepts.DBInstanceClass.SupportAurora). "The smallest instance classes that you can use with version 3 are t3.medium and t4g.medium. " The db.t4g.medium is the cheapest option

More of a follow up question instead of an answer.

Will there be a possibility in the future that AWS will add a db.t3.small option when selecting v3 MySQL Aurora RDS?

This has been raised 10 months ago, so I am not sure if I should wait or just stick with v2.

Thanks!
