We were not allowed to board by the check in staff without this, so we had to fill one out, which was tricky since it asks for your address in DE where you will be and we did not have one...several others had the same issue who were in transit to home in France etc.

I’d be tempted to google the street address of LH HQ and enter that.

My other concern is whether the UA checkin crew at ORD will know that we don't need paperwork for a transfer!

I'm flying from YYZ to BCN via FRA next week and understand that current regulations do not require anything from Canadians transiting through Germany to Spain (where Canadians are not required to provide any testing or vaccine records; I am fully vaxxed FWIW).
However, I've seen some FT stories where misinformed airline / airport staff are still asking people in my situation to provide proof of the Digital Entry Registration. Wanting to be safe rather than sorry, I tried filling one out, but once you enter Canada as your origination country, it just says:
Any advice on what I should do to avoid any issues? Thank you!

You do not need to complete the Digital Registration on Entry.

Airport staff in Greece refused to let me on a flight to Iceland via Germany without filling it out - so I had to do it anyway at the airport, and list the airport address I was transiting at as my location for the next 10 days. Ridiculous.
