Unable to add external accounts as term group managers

We had added some external accounts (externaluser.com#ext#@mycompany.onmicrosoft.com) as term group managers. But now when we tried to add some new term group managers, we could not save the setting unless we removed the external accounts. Is there any setting which is related to external sharing in term store so that we could add existing external users as term group managers?

    We noitced that People picker in Term store GUI found only some of the Guest users, not all. We first thought this would be because of some guest users had been granted access through different process. We still don’t know why some guest accounts can be seen in GUI and some not. But seems it does not prevent us from granting the access through powershell.
