Each button in the screenshot toolbar shows a tooltip when you hover over — not even after a couple seconds, but immediately. The one you're talking about is labeled "Record Entire Screen."

The one you're talking about is labeled "Record Entire Screen." You are right, that is how I figured it out. By giving up on using visual queues, and hovering over each button individually to see if there were any surprises. If the circle had literally just been red I would've guessed it immediately. To be fair Apple's page for this does show the button with the circle over it, I somehow managed to miss the circle despite reading the page twice. I do have a bias against icons in general, I prefer text labels on all my icons but apparently that is way too 90s. :/ (The dock is largely useless to me, I use Contexts to make MacOS usable, let's me switch apps by typing in the app's name, I have an equivalent program on Windows)
