I just re-read this item, and have a few notes:

1. The standard spelling is PXELINUX, all caps.  This is for historical
reasons, but has stuck around.

2. With regards to option 210: if this is adopted, it needs to be noted
for any new option if it is subject to having option 210 prepended or
not.  Option 209 *is* subject to 210.

3. There is an additional justification for option 210.  It does provide
a method to allow the administrator to let PXELINUX use the standard
discovery algorithm for the configuration file, but in a specific area
of the TFTP server.  It's thus, in addition to other things, a "softer"
form of the configuration file search option.

However, by far its most common use is really to select one of multiple
full configuration trees, as described in the document.
