The options for text messages has changed. It no longer offers the option to reply to message. Why has that been dropped?

After listening to incoming text messages on CarPlay it no longer offers me the option to reply as it once did.

Tell Siri that you'd like to reply, then speak your message. Say something like "Reply 'I'm on my way'" or "Tell her 'I'll meet you there. '" When you stop talking, Siri reads your reply back to you and asks if you want to send it.
