Can someone tell me what that valve on the hose connections for the front end loader is for? I have the single point connector on mine and the dealer still installed that valve. Zoom in on this pic to see it.

You need to attach a pic

If it's the one I think you are talking about, that should be to hold you boom up without bleed off.

I have the JD live 3rd function on mine that I had added when I bought it in 2020. The only issue I have with my mirrors is that I hit my head on them sometimes when I climb in.

Yup, I do it all the time.

As JD5075 said it's to hold the boom arms.... BUT ... I would never trust hydraulics to hold it over any of my body parts. Too many seals, hoses and fittings between that valve. I think some lawyer made them put it there because you're under the loader if you open the hood. I step on the bucket.
