Wow, I didn’t know about F12! Maybe they could remap that to something that doesn’t require reaching for the function row. Maybe CTRL-S.

What I want to do: I created a new file that I want to save in a new folder on shareddrive.

Using your method:

1. Make a new spreadhseet, press CTRL+S

2. Get some super limited menu with few last locations -> doesnt include any of the locations I need

3. Click on random location, ten you have to go down and choose "more locations" -> again doesnt have any of the locations I need, neither on shared drive or local computer; at least there is a shortcut to desktop (in the past it wasnt there since they were pushing cloud even more)

4. The next menu shows you more locations - but still not the new location that you want, so you have to find "browse" button.

Why not press F12 and get a browse button?

Maybe at your work you have one spreadsheet or one PDF, but I often have few open. I also dont even mention the problem of interlinked files (especially Excel files) and Sharepoint, where the folder address become impossible to work with.
