Where The Record Is Found (Citation) is missing details

This started happening just over the past few months, and I thought there might be some additional indexing going on, but nothing has been updated.

Here's an example from my grandfather: John Everett Stratton LZLC-5QV

In the past, the citation details would read like this example:

""United States Census, 1910," database with images, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MLHM-GNK : accessed 3 March 2021), John E Stratten in household of Clarence Stratten, Grant Township, Richardson, Nebraska, United States; citing enumeration district (ED) ED 169, sheet 5B, family 99, NARA microfilm publication T624 (Washington D.C.: National Archives and Records Administration, 1982), roll 854; FHL microfilm 1,374,867.

Now, the same source citation reads like this:

"United States Census, 1910", database with images, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MLHM-GNF : Tue Sep 19 00:01:21 UTC 2023), Entry for Clarence Stratten and Mary L Stratten, 1910.

A lot of important details have been left out of the citation information. For a long time, I knew that this kind of detail was missing on the 1870 and 1900 US census records, and assumed it was just a matter of getting caught up. But, the additional details are now missing on ALL US census records, as well as a lot of some birth, marriage and death records.

I couldn't find anything addressing this in the FS blog or help sections. Does anyone know if this is a permanent change and/or the reasons why? Or, is it a temporary glitch like when the 1900 US census records "broke", and it took them a few months to fix it?

Thank you!
