Thanks a lot for the report. All bugs will be fixed for the next release.
Just few points:

Tools->Opening doesn't seem to do anything (no engines loaded and no openings created).
I think Settings->Engines and Settings->Book/Egtb should be made separate menu and toolbar options instead of buried under settings. Tournament could also be a separate menu bar.
I have been working on the interface: organizing settings, toolbars and menus. There are some pros and cons between centralizing (as current design) or using multi-places. I have noted your suggestions and will be back to work on that soon.

Edit->Paste should be Edit->Paste PGN.
I think "Paste FEN" will be needed at some point.
BSG can work with pastes of PGN or FEN strings. Just paste any of them.

Pieces could use anti-aliasing.
I have been working hard on that issue. Can you post the image of aliasing pieces and tell me which screen type, solution, the computer's OS you are using? Thanks

Options under New Tournament could use longer explanations of what they do. This could be done using tooltips. Does "Syzygy path" there allow multiple directories? "Syzygy" should be near "Syzygy path." Better defaults would be good (e.g. Resign score).
Yes, you may use multi folders, separated by ; for macOS/Linux or : for Windows

Bug - when I'm choosing "WeightsFile" for LC0, I get a dialog about replacing this file.
I had to expand most of the windows to see the full info. E.g. in Settings->Engines. Bigger default size would be nice.
BSG can remember the size of the Settings dialog. Just resize it and it will be that size for the next time. Between the engine list and the option list is a splitter you may drag it for better sizes too.
Some users still using small screens, thus BSG has to start with small sizes.

I should be able to set the number of cores and hash size per-engine, not just overall.
You can, just turn off Overall options then set them from the option list of each engine.

What is "(men: 0, eg: 0) after Syzygy checkbox?
That is the brief info of Syzygy EGTB. Men = the largest piece number, eg = number of endgames. "men: 0" means you did not set the folder of Syzygy yet (set in Book/Egtb tab of Settings). On my computer, the brief info is: men: 5, eg: 145.

If you continue following up on user requests quickly, I think you will have the best GUI out there. As few bugs as possible is most important. Arena GUI has lots of options but it's buggy.
