What is the trick to just cracking the power windows? I understand a press and hold fully raises or lowers automatically. A momentary press seems next to impossible to achieve. If I do a quick push up, then down, and after some fussing, I get the window where I want it. This is using the drivers door window controls.

Also, the front windows seem to behave differently than the rears.

Another quick press-down after the first. Don't need to reverse directions to stop it -- just another down.

And yes, the rears don't auto-up (presumably so you don't automatically/accidentally put the windows up on someone/something in the back).

Yes, Yes. A quick double tap inches them down. And as you said, the rears will auto-down but not auto up.

Tap-Tap. Thank you @KMeloney!

The quick-press also works for the 3/6 flash turn signal assist.

So don’t be that person who’s confusingly flashing their turn signals left and right just to get the flashes to stop.
