I'm unhappy about how some attributes like capacity are handled.
With this new feature and Set-Place you now have two places where those attributes must be managed. At the same time, you have the same attributes on the Mailbox itself (e.g. New-Mailbox -ResourceCapacity -Office -City)
When set on the mailbox they are displayed in the GAL. When set on the new place they're displayed in OWA. There is no sync between them, so you always have to manage both sides. Especially for the phone number this should be a thing. For Teams room systems I shouldn't have to assign a phone number via Set-Place. The number should originate from the underlying mailbox resource account / teams account.
That is administrative overkill. Please find some way to have this set on either side and let it sync. Or remove it from one of those sides.
