We could do that, its probably enough for mptcp needs.
This would keep nf_bridge and secpath pointers as-is and increase

If you prefer that, ok, but I don't see why we can't unify them behind
a single layer?

Well, for a start we do not use nf_brifge or secpath.

XDP is all about not unifying because unifying has a cost.

Do we really want to slow down the stack just because MPTCP is coming ?
