I right-clicked on a file expecting to find the "Make a Link" choice, but it's now missing!

Anybody know where it went?

As in versions of nautilus prior to 40.2 that comes with Ubuntu 21.10, this is an optional right-click menu item, turned off by default in Ubuntu. Enable it from the Preferences (≡ menu, Preferences).

In Nautilus 3.36, the setting "Show action to create symbolic links" is on the "Behavior" tab under "Link creation":

In Nautilus 40, the option "Create link" appears under the section "Optional Context Menu Action":
