With enough squinting we notice that the difference is (for all ORCID fieldsm only one shown) between (<https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0071-1745>) and (ORCID: <https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0071-1745>) which leads to _suspect_ that the processing code is now ahead is makeing the ORCID identificier more of a proper field (there have been previous changes to that effect) and the checking code may not have caught up, but likely will soon. You could ask CRAN, or wait a day or two and see if it changes, and/or try with a slightly older R-devel build. My containers rocker/r-devel and rocker/drd (which is slighly smaller) update weekly early in the week so you could try that.
