You can, of course, trivially make that so in your own database.
=# create function to_char(date, text) returns text
language sql stable strict parallel safe
as 'select pg_catalog.to_char($1::timestamp without time zone, $2)';
=# select to_char(current_date, 'dd-Mon-yyyy TZH:TZM'); to_char
-------------------- 22-Oct-2021 +00:00
(1 row)
Regardless of whether the original choice not to have this variant
was intentional or an oversight, I'd be pretty loath to change it now
because of backwards compatibility. But Postgres is adaptable.

Going down that path I would be sorely tempted to default the format text to the style I typically want.
create function to_char(dt date, fmt text default 'dd-Mon-yyyy TZH:TZM') returns text
