I downgraded to v2.3.1 from apkmirror and it still had the huge number 
of trackers, so I downgraded further to v2.2.4 an that just had the 4 
you list above.

Likewise ... my pixel launcher has a shortcut to notification history 
built-in, on my samsung tablet I use ActivityLauncher to manually add a 
shortcut to "NotificationHistory" but it seems oneUI 8.5 includes an 
option within settings ... can't remember if that was there bbefore or not?
