Novanax is new and no study has been done for this purpose so if you are afraid of another dose of Moderna you should choose Pfizer instead. The atrial fibrillation was likely coincidental rather than caused by a mRNA vaccine, especially if you have an underlying cardio-pulmonary illness. However, unless Moderna or Pfizer changes the product, I doubt another booster (#4) makes any difference.
