I wonder if it's supposed to be undisplayed and only in MATE, or was
that a goof.  The original poster might try filing a bug report and see
what the response is.

I'm still on Fedora 32, using MATE with old-school menus, not the
pretend it's a tablet interface.  Caja is in the Applications - System
Tools sub-menu.

My default-installation /usr/share/applications/caja.desktop contains:
NoDisplay=true
OnlyShowIn=MATE;

My /usr/share/xfce4/helpers/caja.desktop does not.

I can sort of understand it being MATE specific.  When I had KDE
installed on a system, as well as other interfaces, there were various
things that only showed up in it.  So I guess various interfaces which
have their own file browsers might use theirs instead, or instead of
listing all the available ones.  But it's a bit user-unfriendly.

I do modify my menus (which actually means *my* menus, which should get
left alone by updates).  e.g. It makes no sense, to me, for Evolution
to be in the Office menu, but not the Internet one.  Chiefly, I use it
for email, which is an internet thing.
