On macOS, I just created a new "PIA" service in Network. Is there any reason to use Viscosity instead of the macOS VPN client?

If I am not wrong PIA doesn't support IKEv2. The only choice is then L2TP/IPSec.

IPSec is typically considered secure, but it's allegedly compromised in some implementations and/or weakened during the standardisation process.
