The Events-oriented-turn of Google is interesting and very performant for most situations, but we must keep in mind that a "no-event period of time" for Home app developper may be a "very-important-event" for the human user of the cam and buyer of Nest aware Plus plan.
A lot of very creative uses are possible with that. But for now, creativity is shrinked.
What will be the Google-way solution? 1, 2, or 3? I vote for 3, and also 2.

We have the new Google Nest Camera (Battery) plugged in with the optional power cable. I believe the new Google Nest Camera (indoor, wired) should work the same in the Google Home app. If we go to our camera in the Google Home app and click on "History" at the bottom of the screen, a horizontal timeline displays under the video feed, with events highlighted in blue. We can use that timeline to scroll through the last 10 days of continuous video, but the scrolling is slow and does not work as well as in the Google Nest app.

You are right about that. The Google Home app provides no ability to manually edit and save video clips.

ok, it let browse history. I see that now. We can here everything. At least we can browse. But we can not save anything in between events (in grey timeline).
Next step is, as you say, is to get a way to "do" something with it, not just to see it.
Thank you for your help,
