In order to make the kernel option persist, you will have to add the option to your bootloader config. Ubuntu probably uses grub, but in any case, I never can remember how to configure any of the bootloaders. Someone here can probably help out (or it’ll be a quick search away, I’m sure).

You would have to do that, yes. In all likelihood, you’ll be fine with just picking a distro. As the Señor says, elementary has a Mac-like aesthetic.
I have no experience with that distro myself, but I’d imagine that it allows running a live environment directly from the USB, that will let you test it without installing so you can see if everything that you need to work will work, and also whether you actually like it (running a live environment from a USB will be slower than if you had it installed, so don’t base your “liking it” off of that).

The irony.
Nah, rollbacks are a feature to save you when it has broken. A good one indeed, but it’s more akin to a fire extinguisher. It doesn’t prevent the problem, but it does prevent everything from being a pile of ashes.
Well, OP only specified that they’d been using Linux for about a decade; no mention of their laptops not being from the early 90s. :)
Whatever nebulous issues one or the other may or may not have had, my personal experience is that startpage (from my understanding, basically privacy’d google) provides higher quality search results than DDG (fmu, basically privacy’d bing).
Great operating system, that. Shame it lacks a text editor.
There are people coming from Windows, which does not have
dd.
Here’s one for less than 4 USD. I imagine 150 mm in length would be sufficient.

Kubuntu on my desktop, I prefer KDE as a DE and I’m used to the Debian ecosystem.
Linux Mint on my relatively low powered laptop that I rarely use.
Debian stable on my media server.
In my experience (with a networked HP printer), both printing and scanning just work out-of-the-box with the standard Linux tools. CUPS really is great.
