why does autocorrect on ios 17.6.1 still correct even after i cancel out the suggestion

When typing a word and it suggests another spelling, I click the "X" and normally (on old iOS) it wouldn't correct after you hit the space bar. However, on this iOS even after you cancel and hit the space bar it will still change the word to what you didn't want. What setting or option is this or can we get it changed back? Because this has got to be the most annoying thing apple has done to date.

Troubleshooting Auto-Correct Issues:

Vocabulary is a big issue for many. Seems to be a bug. So, provide Apple feedback on this, letting them know to look into this. See here: How to use Auto-Correction and Predictive Text on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
