Are you certain it was a spouse visa under number 6 of https://www.immigration.go.th/?page_id=2506 and not a dependent visa under number 4 of https://www.immigration.go.th/?page_id=2506 These are two different visas with different requirements if I'm not mistaken

Hi, I am a Thai PR here for many years now, I am marrying my non-Thai wife soon and will obtain a Non-O visa for her. But when I read the instructions on obtaining a spouse visa under number 6 on the immigration website (https://www.immigration.go.th/?page_id=2506), the title says "Apply for or request a change of visa type – to give or receive patronage from a person of Thai nationality or a resident of the Kingdom (in the case of marriage) (Code O)". According to this, my wife-to-be should be eligible for this visa as well, right? I know that under number 8 on the same website there is "Apply for or request a change of visa type in order to give or receive patronage from a person residing in the Kingdom (code O)" which could also easily apply but I think getting a spouse visa would likely have more benefits for her like obtaining a work permit. Does anybody know if a spouse visa is possible here? If we don't know, where/how would be my best bet to find out?
