Family Groups Reservations, why would names be grayed out?

I have reserved family names and shared them with family groups. In FamilySearch (on my computer), all seems fine. However, when I use Family Tree and go to Family Groups, many of the names are grayed out. They can't be selected, e.g. to Take to Temple or Reserve for Later. Why would names in the shared family groups be grayed out?

    Thank you for responding. My question is about the entire listing (row) in family groups (not the temple work icons). In the Family Tree app (on my phone), I cannot select the name and all the text is grayed out (name, submitter, etc.).

    I wondered if this has to do with the prior work not yet being done, thus the name cannot be selected. But in Family Tree, I can’t do anything, even reserve later or pull back to my reservations to share with the temple. I cannot do any action with the name to confirm my theory, eg see what ordinances have already been done.

    When I view the same names in Family Groups on FamilySearch (on my computer), the names are not grayed out. I can see that the prior ordinances have NOT yet been done. I can select the names to move them back to my reservations or to another family group.

    I'd love to better understand why the entire ROW in Family Tree is grayed out for some names in Family Groups.

    Thoughts?

    Also, I cannot see your response in Family Search / Help / Communities / My Discussions. I could only see it on a notification on my phone.
