Actually, none of the syntaxes are available only the sub menus! And that is because of the preview on click. You can't change the syntax of a file which isn't fully opened. You can disable file previews and then when you open a file it will have the syntax selection available. This is working as intended

  1. Ask the developers, maybe make a feature request?
  2. “preview_on_click”: false
  3. Sublime preview files on click but it can be disabled.
