Tabular Editor - Calculation groups
It is not a bug, it is by design.
Calculation groups are not compatible with implicit measures.
It is described in the documentation, too:
When you enable calculation groups, Tabular Editor enables the Model option Discourage Implicit Measure.
If you remove all the calculation groups, you can restore that property to False to enable implicit measures again.
However, it is a best practice to only expose explicit measures in a Tabular model.
If you use Tabular Editor, you can find macros to quickly create measures from numeric columns:
