Creatine is known to give you some more energy. Like, 3%-5%. That's just an extra rep, hardly noticeable.

I wouldn't say hardly noticeable especially for experienced lifters. After training for a few years those extra reps and slightly more weight have compounding effects over time.
True. What i am saying is that one has to have a good feeling of what this extra rep is like.

Personally, i only saw that it works over time because of my journal. Most people dont do records.

And extra rep seems like it could be a big deal when strength training.
Yeah, sure.

The point is that it doesn't work like those Witcher potions. Nothing changes here and now.
