Please allow me to ask... Why exactly would that be not wanted?

Could it be problematic for a user that makes the replacement by mistake? Yes.

But if you want to replace something in every formula in cells, couldn't that
be also a possible case for Validity, or for CF?

And then there is the case of simple values. Let's assume that you want to F&R
the content of every cell that contains some string. This could also be the
case for Validity content; is it not?

Perhaps the addition of items should be under the "Other options" section, and
even with some colored warning (to reduce mistakes). But that does not mean
that the possibility of searching (and optionally replacing) is not wanted (at
all).

I would suggest asking other users whether this possibility was ever needed for
them.
