at least give us an advanced place where we can just paste code

It would be great if one of the new requests could be writing actual code

I am not a programmer so the details are probably above my head, but this has been brought up before.

Add a RM REMARK line?

No. RM is not a programming language. It doesn't have lines of code. It creates a UI summary of the actions that are setup to show what those actions are, but that is not "code" in any way. If you want to include text in actions, either use the Log action, or as suggested above, use a virtual notification device. Or, better than that, use the Notes section of the rule to write down whatever you want. For example, you could copy the UI summary of the actions and paste into the Notes sectio…

Variable Math question

Yes. It is primitive. It's not a programming language.

Trouble with conditional actions in rule machine 3.0

Adding and deleting as a pair is pretty much compiler-like stuff. It's not built to handle such things. It's not a programming language, it has no smarts. It just puts in what you tell it to put in. It does attempt to prevent you from doing certain bad things, like creating a second IF-THEN in the middle of one. But it's not fool proof. There's a tradeoff to allowing anything to be deleted, and then expecting after deletion that everything is OK. Delete IF-THEN parts at your own risk!
