Yes, unfortunatelly MS has done it again: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4032106/handling-html-markup-in-sharepoint-calculated-fields

The change has rolled out the same day the news about it was published :(

Here also a load of sites broken without any communication up front, hopefully Microsoft is going to roll-back this change.
