Suggestion

I seriously don't get why this changed. The only three options are original, create subfolder or don't create subfolder. But original is the default which means it isn't a real option, it just means the checkbox will be either selected or not when you load in the torrent. Which means there's really only two options, which means we don't need a dropdown menu for a toggle because it's less cumbersome to just be able to select or deselect creating a folder with one click.

Use case

Ease of use every time a user wants to alter the content layout option.
