Auren10 this is what I've been told by the escalation team regarding permissions reverting back from read to edit for "Everyone Except External Users" on public group site (which does not makes any sense to me):

 

Hello Martin,

I just had a discussion with Escalation Team and got to know that this is a known behavior globally. This has been confirmed that this is how a Public Group Site collection should work. In order to get this resolved we can follow either of the following step.

 

  1. Remove the Members Group from Public Group Site collection

OR

  1. Rename the Members Group and then change the permission.

OR

  1. If we explicitly wants all users not to have EDIT permission then we can create new SPO Site Collection and make required changes.

Your patience is highly appreciated
