What's the explanation for modifiers vs interval functions? I (naively) figured modifiers were syntactic sugar for functions.

They're more like macros: they're inlined, so it's like copy-pasting the modifier code anywhere it's applied.

Yeah, use sparingly. This was a good recent discussion:

Checks out, thanks for sharing. They seem... strictly worse than internal functions then, other than perhaps a readability improvement?

Worth noting that with via-ir internal functions might also get inlined to save gas. I'm not sure offhand if there's an easy way to know when it decides to do this, or if there's a dedicated flag to enable/disable this feature
