[ComplexPoint]

Perhaps it's the categorisation that is new rather than the execute macro action ?

The Execute Macro action previously was only in the Execute category and the Control Flow category (since it is basically a subroutine). This change simply added it also to the Keyboard Maestro category which contains actions for controlling Keyboard Maestro.

It’s just the categories that it appears in that change, nothing about the action changed per se.
