Custom labels in contacts

I can’t add custom labels in iCloud contacts on my new iPhone 14. I could do it on older phones and it’s still possible for hotmail and gmail accounts but not those in the iCloud list. Why?

iPhone 14 Plus

How sure are you that those contacts are on iCloud and not any other email account?

Because on my iPhone I have the ability to add a custome label for iCloud Contacts and the same is ratified by this guide. --> Edit contacts on iPhone - Apple Support

If I open lists, click on iCloud and try to add a new contact I can’t customize the labels. The contact is not in hotmail or gmail lists. I get a truncated list of label options.

I just discovered that if I add a contact and save it, I can go back and click edit and then I have the custom label option. I just don’t get it initially. Strange but ok.
