I mean turn if off once guests are gone, yes it's not safe as everything on the network can be sniffed by your nosy neighbors, you can quanrentine this guest network from your ethernet to make it less revealing. It's meant to be a one-off thing to avoid hassle. Good to know they have that in WPA3.

In WPA3 the nosy neighbours can't sniff anything. If there is no password or they know it they can do an active MITM to get between users and your Access Point because it now uses a PAKE, but active attacks can be detected and would be a bit more than "nosy neighbours". If you use anything fancier than a password (including technologies like EduRoam or GovRoam, Active Directory login, whatever) any adversary has to attack that instead.
