According to the docs as well as the infomration provided on the page to maintain entities, an "All Entity" option should be available for switch and light helper groups:
Binary sensor, light, and switch groups allow you set the “All entities” option. When enabled, the group behavior is inverted, and all members of the group have to be on for the group to turn on as well.
While this option is available for binary sensor helper groups by default, it is hidden behind the "advanced mode" [1] toggle for switch and light groups. I only found this info when having a look at the source code. This should at least be documented in the docs (or changed in a way that all three are consistent and in line with the documentation). I leave it up to you to decide on whether to change the behavior or improve the docs.
