How to transfer or move pics from Photo App to Word?

Not really sure what you're asking, I'm afraid. If you create a document in a word processing program, you can import an image from a file.

How do you transfer pictures from a UWP app such as Photos to a desktop program? You don't- you need to know where the file is.

Photo App which seems to devour pics

- perhaps you are referring to the way the app - if you let it- indexes images and creates albums. If this is not something you use or want, I suggest you consider disabling it.

I wonder if I asked the wrong question? Or the transfer from Photo App to Word just doesn't exist?

So, the Windows App Photo's is an app that allows you to view and edit photos and save them where you wish, usually in the Pictures folder. Word is part of the Microsoft Office suite, which is a Work Processing app to read and write and type documents like a typewriter. So, you cannot move pics from a photo editing software to a Word Processing software. Though, you can embed photos in a Word document.
Perhaps you want to store your photos where you store your Word Documents in the Documents folder instead of the Pictures folder?

I wonder if I asked the wrong question?

Yes, you did ask the wrong question.

Your photos are not "in" the photo app. But the photo app can be used to work on them.
Your photos would not be "in" Word. But you could paste them into a letter using Word.

Your photos are in your computer's disks or your camera's disks and you can use File explorer to find them all & reorganise them the way you want.

If you confirm that this is what you meant to ask then advice can & will be be given.

Depending on how many photos you have, and whether or not you want a "catalog" of these programs and your overall level of interest, consider Adobe Lightroom. The "Photographers Plan" is $10/month. For that, you get great cataloging (and editing) tools, and also Photoshop. It all depends ....
