Using specifiers in these settings isn't particularly useful by itself, but it unifies behaviour a bit. It's kinda surprising that What= in mount units resolves specifies, but Where= does not. Hence let's add that too. Also, it's surprising Where=/What= in mount units behaves differently than in automount and swap units, hence resolve specifiers there too. Then, Type= in mount units is nowadays an arbitrary, sometimes non-trivial string (think fuse!), hence let's also expand specifiers there, to match the rest of the mount settings. This has the benefit that when writing code that generates unit files, less care has to be taken to check whether escaping of specifiers is necessary or not: broadly everything that takes arbitrary user strings now does specifier expansion, while enums/numerics/booleans do not.
