Why is my Sermon Mangler on my desktop a completely different list than the one on the web app? It appears they haven't synced since late January.

I have set up a non-public group with another Logos user and would like to exchange documents in a simple way. I have the following (initial) questions: 1.

Does mixing protestant/catholic/orthodox libraries interfere with links in books?
I think I read something about buying Verbum or Orthodox libraries causing many of your books to have links to catholic resources that you don't have in your library. If I wanted some books that are a good price in Verbum or Orthodox packages, does it actually affect links in my existing books?

How can I stop every single word being highlighted when I move my mouse over a text?
It is so distracting. I've looked everywhere for an option to turn this off. Like everything in Logos, I find the GUI counter-intuitive and frustrating to use. Nothing is easy to find. I only keep using it because it has better materials than competitors, not because I enjoy using it.

Insights button in the way in the mobile app
This issue was presented as a suggestion here, but I believe it should be more than a suggestion: it's a problem Logos must remedy.
