I’m assuming en vez de can’t be used in the same way as por because there is a sense of obligation on behalf of the subject when using por? Yo tomé el carro en vez del autobús. Using por here would be wrong. Yo hice el trabajo por él porque estaba enfermo. En vez de here, would be wrong, right?
I’m wondering if my answer would be acceptable as a possible answer?

How can I recieve a 0 out of 60 despite getting multiple correct sentences?
Niebla is a noun (fog) so shouldn't the translation of hay niebla be there's fog...
And it's foggy would be está neblinoso?
I’d like to see a comparison of using both to speak about the past
I am trying to make my own sentences using preterite for ir etc. I wrote "Ella fue a casa"
but google is saying it should be "Ella se fue a casa". Why 'se'? is it like saying "she went home (to it)"?
Would it be "El vestido es tan hermoso como una mariposa?" for the dress is as beautiful as a butterfly?
and is this the same for comparing to multiple objects when the described object is singular: La luz es tan brillante como las estrellas.
Why is Hay used for It is foggy? Isn't foggy an adjective?
The examples make sense of using, ex: tuviera, because the subject “had” something in the past. However, I’m confused by the test question because I don’t see a reference to the past. The sentence is “I hope i have a son by the time im 33.” I understand Ojalá triggers the subjunctive but I don’t see the connection to the last and therefore don’t understand why “tuviera” was the correct answer. I only selected it because it was the only subjunctive response.
!No me encuentro/no encuentro las llaves del coche! is the test item.
The correct answer is reported to be no encuentro.
Encontrarse is said to be used when "surprised to discover something". I interpreted the exclamation marks as indicating surprise at discovering I was unable to find the keys. I was probably overthinking it, ?verdad?
