making a default phone number?

In my contacts list, I have several phone numbers for a client. How do I establish one of them as the default phone number? I see it posted that "To change the default phone number or email address for a contact

method, touch and hold the button for that method below the contact’s name, then tap a selection in the list." In iOS18.2, I don't see any such button. This goes for my Mac contacts list as well.

iPhone SE, iOS 18

I’ve outlined the steps for setting a default phone number when one of your contacts has two. Refer to the screenshot below for guidance. Note that you cannot initiate calls from the Recents tab in the Phone app. Always use the Favorites tab instead.
