Do you recommend disabling WPS if its a push button configuration (PBC)?

Yes, I would disable it. The security risk far outweighs any convenience it may provide.
The web is full of articles on how bad it is. Here's just one example:
https://www.passwordcoach.com/priority-2-disable-wifi-protected-setup-wps

 

When I try to disable it, I successfully disable 2.4, 5.0 low, and 5.0 high, but when it comes to Booster and IPTV (both of which I don't have in my home), it gives a warning saying "Wi-Fi 5GHz-Low disable WPS now." 

Is this warning displaying because I don't have a booster/IPTV?

I don't have that router but I'm guessing you can safely ignore that.
