Hi Marc,
No worries :-)

3) It works with SharePoint 2013 on-prem in both Chrome and IE on the same client, where IE works and Chrome doesn't against SPO
We have created a MS Ticket, whom are tracking the issue and trying to figure it out as we speak.

Any solution to this problem where content types open in Excel Online instead of the client application?
