Did the new Outlook Design for Mac break Applescript?

I was using a good deal of AppleScript with MS Outlook. With the release 16.49 the new design came also with it. However all my scripts seem to not work anymore. Any ideas?

If I switch to the old design then all scripts work again.

Just as an example:

tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
    selection
end tell

This normally gives back something like: incoming message id 140096 of application "Microsoft Outlook"

But with the new design it just returns: missing value

I've heard the new version with the new interface is not Applescriptable yet, but it may be if you can use the old interface. I don't have the new version so I can't say for sure.
