Trying to use Energy, but timer has not expired

Here is the scenario... when I try to use an energy packet, but I still have to wait because it hasn't been long enough since I used them all (20 hours or 24 or whatever the timer is). It used to show you the amount of time you needed to wait for your energy to become available. Now it shows "Oops... it looks like something went wrong internally" and there is a More details button to click. Clicking the More details opens up another line that tells us how long we need to wait before we can use the energy packets again. I'd really like to see this changed back so that the info is displayed automatically and the extra click is not needed. Thanks!

I think they did it to make the programming easier and more modular and logical, but less user friendly is the outcome.

Please, have some logical consistency here.
