Filezilla for windows appears to install malware, remove the recomendation and substitute with winscp.

Should this page also recommend a Mac SFTP client?

Err - pass. Never used sftp on the Mac - but both scp and sftp are already installed as command-line apps on the Mac and can be used from the Terminal.

I would personally question including the Linux version of Filezilla in the docs, given they are happy to include dubious binaries in their Windows installer. It's also not really necessary to recommend a GUI sftp client for Linux, IMHO. (Also, sftp URL's Just Work (TM) in the Pi desktop's file manager 😀).
