Using 'Get-GPInheritance' Command in Powershell 7

mmm.

I am checking the issue and notice that there are a lot of different between running the command on Powershell 5.1 (Infrastructure version) vs Powershell 7

even the object type and the return is different, 

Powershell 5.1, Notice that the name is GPOLink, which seems to be an object holding the value 

PS C:\Users\Administrator> ((Get-GPInheritance -Target $ou ).InheritedGpoLinks)[0].gettype()

IsPublic IsSerial Name                                     BaseType
-------- -------- ----                                     --------
True     False    GpoLink                                  System.Object

 Powershell 7.1, Notice that the Value type is String not GPOLink

PS C:\Program Files\PowerShell\7> ((Get-GPInheritance -Target $ou ).InheritedGpoLinks)[0].gettype()

IsPublic IsSerial Name                                     BaseType
-------- -------- ----                                     --------
True     True     String                                   System.Object

Even when you run Get-GPInheritance -Target $ou 

Powershell 5.1: will return the GPNmae

Powershell 7.1: will return Microsoft.GroupPolicy.GpoLink

I will do more checks on this, this is maybe because the GroupPolicy module was written and tested in PS5.1 but not 7
