I wouldn't worry about it. NVDA has the same behaviour for all horizontal lists, so people who use NVDA will encounter it with the main menu on pretty much very website they visit. They may even consider it strange if your menu does not behave this way.

WCAG does not say anything about how screen readers should behave, so it's not going to be a WCAG non-conformance. We all have opinions, but user testing is the only way to know if it's really a problem that needs to be fixed.
