That's some pretty boring information overall.

One which might be cause for concern is LogInvalidInputPasted() specifically because pastedExpression is included in the Telemetry Event.

I also have questions on LogConversionResult(). Why is that recording NetworkAccessBehavior or the raw conversion values? Wouldn't knowing the FromUnit/ToUnit be enough to know how much something is being used?

Conversion between currencies requires access to the API that provides conversion rates.
I presume that LogConversionResult() logs the result of a currency conversion that has already accessed Micrisoft's API. So why does Microsoft need to know the results of my calculations? The function in question isn't GetCurrencyRate().

Only "might"? If you just accidentally paste your password to the calculator...
