Visa extension
Because their computers are not programmed for it. It is e-government Thai style.

Online TM6 form for visitors to Thailand coming on May 1
Immigration does not routinely collect information from the airlines. I suspect than when the TM.6 requirement for air passengers was abolished, someone forgot to delete the requirement for immigration officials at the airports to input the flight number on their computer screen, hence the I/O's request for the boarding pass.

Applying for a SETV eVisa
I would reply: "I am currently not employed and have no employment certificate. I will travel to Thailand for the purpose of tourism and will not seek employment in Thailand"

5 year multiple entry DTV visa (Destination Thailand) from 2024-xx-xx
Generally, the eVisa fee is paid online with a credit card at the end of the online application process. With Laos and other Southeast Asian countries recently added to the eVisa process, cash payment is required until the Ministry of Foreign Affairs finalises arrangements with Kasikorn Bank for online credit card payments.

My Chang beer says natural ingredients
I'm not much into beer when I am in Thailand (where I currently am, snowbirding). Does Chang fall into the category of cheap beers? I remember a topic about 15 years ago on ThaiVisa where it was claimed that a popular beer included formaldehyde; forgot with brand it was. I went to see recently in the shop in the Swiss town where I live and saw that the label did not list formaldehyde but another chemical that is can also be used for embalming. Looking again recently at the labels of the three Thai beers on the shelves, none had anything other than water, hops, malt plus rice and/or barley on the legally required full declaration of ingredients. The formulas for the export versions may differ, though, from those of the local Thai versions.

My Chang beer says natural ingredients
Thai law doesn't require the listing of the ingredients on the packaging of beer. The manufacturer of Chang beer is cagey about the ingredients list and on its website https://www.changbeer.com/en/our-brew/chang-classic mentions MAJOR INGREDIENTS: Malt, Hops, Yeast and Water An IA summary of the result of a web sarch with "what ingredients are in Chang beer in Thailand" says: Chang beer in Thailand contains water, barley malt, rice, hops, and yeast. Chang beer is a lager beer with an alcohol content of 5%. This corresponds to the ingredients list of the product shown on the websites of three sellers in the EU I have seen, except that yeast is not listed although it is obviously used. I wonder why yeast is mostly not listed on all brands of beer in the EU. Does this living single-celled microorganism exhaust itself and die during the fermentation process and thus is no longer present in the final product except perhaps as dead bodies?

Something new in non-o (upon marriage) requirements for extension
Dealing with officialdom, standing one's ground in a polite but firm manner can sometimes gain oneself some respect from the officials involved. I am pleased to see that you had this positive experience.
