Quick replies don't work with Facebook Messenger (Android)

I've noticed today that quick replies work for SMS (text) messages, with Facebook Messenger the watch UI display Reply sent, but it never actually gets thru.

Has anyone else noticed that?

This maybe related or not. The messenger app that they released few months ago is also part of Garmin InRreach system.

In case of satellite service, they announced they will discontinue the social media sharing feature sometime this summer....
