Thanks. Two comments:

1. Probably, a search with "&" or with "ampersand" should lead us to
the place where an explanation for the ampersand symbol is given in
the Help;

2. The explanation given in the help page (Help > Contents > Index >
Search term > formula
functions;operators) does not inform us that if the ampersand symbol
is sided by numeric cells, then the numeric values are converted into
text. This information would be very useful.
