Helps a great ton!
Though, is there a way to add, at the end of that also
"else, make the row in question the default style"?

I find that after deleting the word "Pending" it remains yellow

Hi,

Conditional formatting. Select the row(s) to which this applies then

Format|Conditional format - Select 'Formula is' from the dropdown and enter
the formula

=$E2="Pending"

Click Format and on the 'Pattern' tab and choose yellow. OK

Note that you should change the 2 to the top row of your selection

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
