O that’s funny. Apparently it was originally a noun, hundreds of years ago. It actually changed into the adjectival use I was referring to earlier in the 1800s.

If anything it seems that using myriad as an adjective was actually an example of a rule change made to accommodate how people were speaking at the time.
