As you yourself have pointed out, recorded macros based on Find and
Replace often don't work as expected, and, as I don't write VBA, I'm
not up to editing them.

I meant that you could store your regular searches as macros

Even better would be to have a selection of F&R "profiles" or
something akin to AutoText entries that would be saved between
Word sessions. There are certain combinations I search for
repeatedly (two spaces with one space, ^p^p wit ^p, etc.), and it
would be neat to be able to just say, use F&R combination 1, 2,
3, or whatever.

Suggestion. When I find and replace, I can go back and choose
something I've looked for, or something I've replaced. Picking
what I looked for from the list doesn't change what I'm
replacing; it would be nice to have an option that says 'replace
with the same text used last time' so that when I pick FindText1
I get ReplaceText1 in the replace box automatically - make it a
checkbox so it's not the default behaviour. when i have a set of
Find/Replace changes to make in several different documents, this
would save time and avoid msitakes.
