This is why I wasn't happy about Raspbian moving from dhcpcd to Network
Manager. Quite often my Linux Laptops which use Network Manager decide
they would like to try WiFi networks other than the one I've chosen,
that's easily fixed via the gui, but not what you want on headless systems.

You could try disabling the NetworkManager service, and reinstalling
dhcpcd so the WiFi is only selected by the contents of the
wpa_supplicant.conf file. It worked fine for everything before Bookworm.
