        Hi,
for what it's worth, here is the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines site,
where you can find the answers for the many questions you have:
https://developer.gnome.org/hig/

With respect of different tool bars, well, my understanding is that the
toolbars are gone in the new era (similar to the menu bar), but you
still need some often used actions easily accessible, hence the header
bar.

Text on buttons, that's tricky with small resolutions. You are lucky
you've plenty of space, but there are people, or use cases, where is
available only limited space, thus the text is too much for the header
bar buttons. If you do not believe, then have a look here:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/2022

You should know that the same as you dislike the workflow the GNOME HIG
folks encourage, there are people not satisfied with your workflow. The
app is in the middle of these two+, and tries to satisfy both+ worlds.
Not an easy task, as you can imagine.

Anyway, this is unrelated to this list, I only wanted to give you a
point of view different from that yours. I do not mean to start a flame
war here. It would be useless for everybody anyway.

        Bye,
        Milan
