Repeat last command has different behavior when accessed from sheet or from macro bar.

Hitting up arrow in the chat after executing a button from a sheet will give the whole formula of the button (this will not stay up to date if the sheet changes) Hitting up arrow in the chat after executing a button that has been dragged from the sheet onto the macro bar will give the reference to that macro (this will stay up to date if the sheet changes) Is this difference in behavior intended? Scenario 2 is what I recommend to any users of my sheet so that token macros do not de-sync with sheet updates. It would be great if both followed the behavior of the second with some alternate keystroke to get the 1st behavior.

I'd hope that this isn't unintended behaviour, as it's useful to have both the capacity to easily retrieve the contents of a sheet button and the Ability call associated with that button.

Yes, both behaviors could be desired and both should be accessible. My suggestion here would be to have the up arrow behavior be the same for both situations (either whole formula or reference) and then having a behavior for the other one.
