I usually spell this as !!:gs/foo/bar/ (in bash). Is there a functional difference?
! command history can also take line and word selectors. I type something like !-2:2 surprisingly often.

I honestly have no idea! It might be because ^^^:& is used by some other bash derivative I used once, and that’s how I learned it. Yeah, I use !-# a bunch too, just not with global replacement. I’m most often just redo-ing some action with a couple of file extensions.
