Not sure if this was brought up with previous updates, as I am setting up a new MK83 mesh network.
Updates to 1.1.7.14 to make sure I was up to date before continuing to build out new network.
When WIFI security is set to WPA3 - devices that only support WPA2 can't connect.
When WIFI security is set to WPA2 everything connects just fine.
I thought when set to WPA3, WPA2 would still work. Am I incorrect?

No, if Mixed WPA2/WPA3 mode isn't seen on the MRs web page then you'll need to set WPA2 for now. Mixed mode is needed for both WPA2 and WPA3 devices to work together.
