The $ does not match any character. It matches a position. You may think
of the position where the bar cursor blinks when you navigate behind
last character of a paragraph. Likewise, the ^ represents the position
before the first character of a paragraph. The paragraph break between
the 2 positions is unmatchable.
\< and \> represent the positions in front of the first or behind the
last character of a word respectively.

\n in the regex search field matches a line break (Shift+Enter in
Writer, Ctrl+Enter in Calc). In the replace field the \n represents a
paragraph break. It is a long standing and highly irritating issue that
replacing \n with \n replaces line breaks with paragraph breaks.
