So is that this a bug or is Google eradicating this function in favor of third social gathering reserving integration?”

Pleasure Hawkins confirmed this saying “es, I am seeing this as properly. I went to see in case you may nonetheless edit it through Counsel an Edit on Google Maps and you may solely take away it (not change it). Bizarre that they might preserve it stay nonetheless within the Information Panel if there is no such thing as a simple technique to replace it.” She additionally shared this screenshot:
