Bunch of em but these are a quick two:

1) I still add and use “select visible cells” to the custom toolbar when reviewing/selecting filtered data.

I'm a firm believer that millennials are scarred from the super unstable computers we had to work on in high school and college that Ctrl + S has become a nervous tick for 90% of us that we'll never get over.

You’re not wrong

What’s the symbol that you can type in a cell so you can input a text, but that text would not appear in the spreadsheet? I want to describe the formula without using a text box, which uses more space.

The equivalent of this is in SQL, you can use the apostrophe in the beginning of and end of a text. That text will not affect the function of the query, but that text can be seen if you proofread the query.
