The stamp works. For a visa in Cairo on arrival, I don’t know. Tourists bought in Sharm.

Yes, it is valid if you are planning a vacation in the resorts of the Sinai Peninsula - Sharm El Sheikh, Dahab and Taba.
The Sinai only stamp, along with a regular visa, can be issued at Sharm El Sheikh Airport and Nuweiba Port. An exclusively Sinai visa is put in the passports of those arriving in Egypt through Taba - to the airport or by road. Airport border guards do not advise on obtaining a free Sinai visa and even prevent issuance - this is the state's income.
The main thing is to fill out the migration card correctly, they are issued for filling out to all tourists at the airport before passing through border control. The card must be filled out in capital letters in English. Do not forget about the checkmark in the column for the purpose of visiting - tourism (Sinai visa is only a tourist visa). The difference between filling out and a regular visa is the inscription SINAI ONLY on the back of the card.

The answer to all three questions is yes.
That's just to engage in obtaining an online visa is recommended at least a week before the intended trip. At the Cairo airport, you will receive a visa in five minutes.

They answered you correctly! In Cairo, you can buy a visa on arrival, you can also get it online. But for citizens of Ukraine (my personal opinion), it's easier to buy on arrival

The Sinai stamp is valid. Why bother with an online visa when it's faster to settle the formalities at the airport? )))

In the comments of an Egyptian official on the introduction of an electronic visa, there was a clarification that it was for those arriving on regular flights.
