Give optimizations for Stylus and Mouse users
There was a feature that I believed was not implemented well, and I had an idea to solve it.
I often use a surface pen as an input device every time I use the app. When I right-click on a highlight to add a tag, note, etc. it always creates a new highlight because the pen made the input, regardless of whether the pen used a right-click or not. I believe a better method for both stylus and mouse users would be to have a hamburger menu icon; much like the application already uses when you select and drag to select text through touch input. After making an annotation, the user could hover over the furthest point of their highlight with their pen or mouse, and use that hamburger menu to interface with that highlighted portion. If there are multiple highlights in the same section (which to me doesn’t make sense, but to another user it could) the hamburger menu icon could prompt the user to select which highlighted portion to add other elements to.

If you would rather the pen not highlight, simply turn off the Live Pen feature in the Annotate ribbon.
