In Calc, when recording changes, one can e.g. add sheets, but not remove them (relevant menu item is disabled). That could confuse users; and I couldn't find mentions of that in help. The set of disabled functions needs to be collected and documented. (Another problem is that this should be somehow be mentioned in UI: like not disabling actions, but trying to use them, replying "Can't do that in track changes mode", or something else making that obvious; but that's a different issue.)

Due to the way the machinery to block removing / moving sheets works, even though add is allowed, adding sheets feels more of a "hack", than expected flow (with the exception of the + icon) > (Another problem is that this should be somehow be mentioned in UI: like not > disabling actions, but trying to use them, replying "Can't do that in track > changes mode", or something else making that obvious; but that's a different > issue.) https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=130840
Should be documented until a real solution that's bug 68655. But https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/scalc/01/02170000.html says: "You cannot delete a sheet while Edit - Track Changes - Record is activated." Is there something else missing?

Nice! I was looking under "Track Changes" help topics. Possibly something could be added there, too - but in fact, anyone trying to delete a sheet would likely rather look under "delete sheet" then under "Track Changes", so ... But yes, there are more places where it's missing: e.g., https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/scalc/01/02180000.html
Tracking and "Move or copy sheet" is not mentioned at https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/scalc/01/02180000.html So I set New.
Dione Maddern committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": https://git.libreoffice.org/help/commit/c9ef3ec7d50ab940d9f9d2a4c255c2cd16a47048 tdf#130838 tdf#154996 Add warning about copying/moving in record mode
I've added a note to https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/scalc/01/02180000.html https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/scalc/01/02180000.html It looks like there's also one on the page for Record Changes.
