Why no keyboard shortcut for Fill Down?

[google]

Hello,
I don't even expect an answer on this, but its been driving me crazy
for while. Why doesn't Excel for Mac support "Fill down" or "Fill
right" anymore? In older versions it was there as a "apple - D"
keystroke. Is there another shortcut I'm missing? Seems like it
commonly used enough to make it worth keeping.

Control-D and Control-R will do what you want. Alternatively, change
the commands to whatever you want.
