I'll be glad to see this changed to "support request" if I'm just being a ninny not seeing what needs to happen.

Expected behavior: after adding text into the "Help Text" field in eg /admin/commerce/config/order/fields/commerce_customer_billing the added text should appear somewhere on the checkout page, preferably near the field or fieldgroup for which the help text was added. Additionally, it would be good for that text to appear near the corresponding field or fieldgroup at /admin/commerce/orders/add

Observed behavior: adding text to the "Help Text" field in Order Field Config does not add said text in either of these places.

Attempted with Garland and with Bartik as chosen themes.

Am I supposed to have coded a new checkout page rather than using the default?

Yeah, basically those fields on the product don't directly match to the components of the checkout form like you're expecting them to. Additionally, on the order edit form, the widget being used doesn't have a place to display field level help text, as it's really there to embed another entity's form. The only solution would be to alter the help text on using hook_form_alter() where you need it to go.
