Why, only technical words are used in the extension blocks instead of the words that are understandable by any common man or newbies?
Extension-related questions should be posted in the topic for that extension.

Read this entire topic, and the links provided. Try out some of the examples, then maybe you will learn and understand how SAF works.
If you have a specific issue, then post your relevant blocks and explain the problem.
It is a complicated subject, necessitating a complex solution, and wording is there to avoid confusion with existing terms used elsewhere in AI2.
You may also want to research the subject; search the web for "android storage access framework" to learn more...

Can anyone make youtube videos about this extension in a way that any newbies can use it without spending too much time to learn the techniqal side of the extension?
okay. I can understand. But, there must be shortcut to understand this extension easily. Okay, I shall search on Google as well.
Is it necessary to use SAF blocks in app to upload files using FilePicker and to put it in GoogleSheet?
No, it all depends where your files are stored and if your app created them as to how you can access them.

Okay, leave me but think of upcoming newbies. It will be good if there is a precise article/tutorial-post in the below format.
TO GET BLOCKS TO LOAD FILES - CLICK THIS LINK.
TO GET BLOCKS TO DO XXXXXXX - CLICK THIS LINK.
TO GET BLOCKS TO DO YYYYYYYY - CLICK THIS LINK
TO GET BLOCKS TO DO ZZZZZZZZ - CLICK THIS LINK,
etc. etc.
If you or mit ai2 team provide precise blocks in the above format (in links), then new users don't need to understand what the SAF is, they simple use the right blocks in their project.
