Hey there! That error message is definitely a head-scratcher. Even though you uninstalled Views, it sounds like something is still referencing a Views-related constant. Maybe a custom module or...
VIEWS_STORAGE_OVERRIDE
Thanks Alejandro. That was the clues I needed.
Ubercart - Programmatically add product to cart and straight to Checkout
Have you tried uc_cart_add_item()? You need to provide the nid of the product. Then you can use backdrop_goto('cart/checkout'); to send the user to the checkout screen. uc_cart_add_item...

File hashing uploads made through TinyMCE
I could request hashing support, but that's the lazy way 🤣 I would appreciate it if you as an active maintainer would 'officially' add a hashing support...

Design / UX topics?
Some things that could get into the next release, if they make sense. Some of them are just ideas that need feedback.
A couple of text relelated ideas that MIGHT help make the layout system easier to use for some folks.

I don't think this one needs discussion. Just action. This has been very close to RTBC for a long time. Does anyone have any final comments? Can someone do a code review? I would really like to see this in 1.29.

Do we need a different solution that the one provided here?
Is this is an issue worth pursuing? Is there even interest in this idea?
I'd like to discuss options for moving #2231 forward. It concerns having a simplified array syntax for database details that will support complex passwords better than the current db url and simpler than the D7 way. There is a PR, but it is blocked when we get to trying to parse and write at install time. Greg (@klonos) proposed a better way of reading and writing settings.php by using token_get_all() in #6297 but that seems to have stalled. I wonder whether splitting off the task into just supporting a simplified array and documenting that it is supported without changing the install process is the way to go to get some movement on this?
