Sorry, I didn’t look closely enough at your initial image:

It looks like you may have a old version of PHP, which will cause the installer to fall back to Sage 8 (see this thread: [Can't install Sage with composer create-project due to php version error](https://discourse.roots.io/t/cant-install-sage-with-composer-create-project-due-to-php-version-error/10169))
