It seems you're trying to organize your data by merging rows into a single column. The goal is to use that merged list for typing, but the current method of using tab or enter causes lines to shift awkwardly. You're looking for a better way to handle this formatting. Solutions could involve adjusting how you structure the input or using alternative methods to manage line spacing.

In Excel on Windows, using ALT+Enter typically inserts a new line at the end of the text, allowing you to stay in the same cell while starting a fresh line.

It's noted that the method functions elsewhere but not within Excel.
