    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.

    This issue decreases usability and productivity. Very important to fix it.

    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?
