As a workaround (which is painful, but still better than nothing) :
In inspector, where the script component is, there's 3 small dots. Click them and from the dropdown select "Edit script". It opens Visual Studio. -

Seriously, lads. How can something like this go into the LTS?
You add new LTS version, and it has such a HUGE error.
Nothing seems to work.
Please fix this ASAP.
What's next? Hide mouse cursor in editor? :) -

This simple little bug is a workflow crusher when you have lots of scripts.

Any one seeing this, a short-term workaround is to switch your inspector to debug mode.

Not only the script object field, all the disabled object fields stopped being interactable, I have a lot of systems that shows disabled object fields and that bug broke them...

What are you changing in an LTS version that breaks basic functionality like this?
Why wasn't this caught by QA before release?
Or was it caught but you decided it's not a blocker?
