I agree that it seems like the application is targeting US citizens with multiple US passports, and also a leftover from the NEXUS application, where it makes sense to include dual US/Canadian citizenship and both passports. The NEXUS and GE apps overlap so much, I would not be surprised to find out it is simply copied from there.
I don't know if the system requires a document per citizenship - I'll try to test that on renewal. It's not entirely clear from the screenshot, it obviously will require documents for the first citizenship - but who knows how its programmed regarding further citizenships.

That screenshot does nt at all say that one must disclose all citizenships. It provides the opportunity to disclose whichever ones one wishes to. The only thing that is mandatory is that one must enter the details of at least one citizenship and at least one passport for each citizenship listed.
The application also doesn't state that you must disclose all the countries you've visited. I don't think it states that you must disclose all the addresses you've lived at. This argument can be extrapolated infinitely. The one thing that is certain is that at the end you declare that your application is complete and truthful. If you are claiming to only have one citizenship when you have multiple, then I would argue the application is incomplete.
