You can enter a formula expression when clicking that button as it does nothing
else than only starting a cell edit with an equal sign character, so Formula is
fine.

Compose is without any meaning to not so adept users.

Hi, I agree with Stuart analysis, but might be difficult to understand for
average users, Compose is not part of the general vocabulary while Formula is,
so voting for Formula :-) Sophie

--- Comment #7 from V Stuart Foote  ---
The toggle action of the button "composes" the formula OR "accepts" the formula
and evaluates.

So while the formula is composed of functions, cell ranges, and static values,
labeling it "Function" in the tooltip is not correct.

Action "Compose" would be more correct--matched with the "Accept" or "Cancel"
button widgets, but "Formula" IS a better tooltip than "Function".

If not change "Function" -> "Compose",  then "Function" -> "Formula" is
acceptable.

Bike shedding to me but Wikipedia adopts the math talk with 'formula' for
'=4/3*pi()*r³' and leaves the tech talk 'function' for informatics. So +1 for
the change.And let's invite Sophie to the party.

Seems like a one-liner to fix, as long as we have agreement on the change.
