Default New Notation 3.0.3 issues

I'm having more issues with 3.0.3 under Windows 10 than I did with 2.63

Edit Repeat Instructions was always frustratingly tedious to use. Now, it's way worse. Why you folks can't add a Multi Line Cut, Copy and Paste here is beyond me.

All I want to do it loop a tune 3x. The only reliable way to do it is with Repeat Instructions. I just want to open the tune and go.

On the old version if I say insert after the last line, I could just hit insert after 20 times. Now every time I hit insert after, it unselects the last line and is implicitly on the first line and inserts at the top.

So I have to reselect the last line, hit insert after, select the last line, insert after etc.

It used to not care if verse was empty. I never knew what that ever did other than documentation. Now it requires verse be set on every line.

I have a MIDI KeyBoard and LoopBe30 running. Every time I start the software it decides to do something different. All I want enabled is 4 LoopBe30 outputs. I unselect everything except the 4 LoopBe30 channels. It will stick a few times and then add them all back causing feedback and out of memory errors. Sometimes I forget to plug in USB before I start Notation and I think that triggers it to rescan everything. It's a pain. It's much worse than 2.6.3 was (which also glitched but not as badly).

Also why do I have to select accents to be on head vs the tail of a note. Why can't you just put them where I click. This makes marking up music so tediously slow and error prone. Adding Slurs/Ties has bottom and top but seems to disregard that and just put it where you click. Why can't SIMPLER accents do the same? Things like these seem so obviously need improvement and nothing has changed in 6 years.
