Seeing why this got changed before in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/rEUWIec1e05c670df93167c58569dc5c093c9f0a6a0b8 this feels like some forth and back which might not be too helpful?
Both changes are moving forward, PD-US isn't the same thing as PD-US-expired. PD-US is a very broad template that isn't specific about the PD reason, which is probably the reason for the original change to the specific PD-1923. More recently, PD-1923 now actually refers to a year that moves up every year, so it was renamed to PD-US-expired as the old name is no longer accurate.
The PD-US documentation recommends using PD-US-expired instead: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:PD-US

Someone needs to +2 the patch in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/extensions/UploadWizard/+/593930/ According to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developers/Maintainers , the Structured Data team is the code steward of UploadWizard. Explicitly adding them here, as it seems this patch was missed so far.
