And this here is really bad design again.

Ammo should be just that.. ammo. It's not a special ability that can't be used with other special abilities. They should add a Quiver UI to bows where you could select the ammo you are using.

I'm in favor of less powerful but more plentiful magic arrows. Would be cool if you could actually run out of arrows, too. It should be a strategic consideration how invested your archer is in melee for a backup.

I actually haven't used any of the arrows either. I think I'm subconsciously staying away because of how gamey and silly most of them are. The push arrows and acid pool arrows especially feel more arcade game than serious RPG to me. It's ok to stretch realism in a fantasy game but the stuff Larian does just shamelessly breaks any immersion of a "real world". You could have all this stuff in the Forgotten Realms, but Larian just takes everything too far.
