Fascism isn't a tolerable "opinion".

Not that I'm aware. Probably Baader-Meinhof.

To wit, coincidences are more noticeable than non-coincidences, and once you've noticed one it'll be much easier to notice others you might have missed.

Switches Excel to scroll the sheet with the arrow keys instead of moving from cell to cell.

I'm pretty certain Excel supports scroll lock. It lets you scroll the sheet with the arrow keys instead of moving from cell to cell (also last time I tried you could go to the ribbon menu with the slash key, like in the good ol' Lotus 123 days).
