I am still not sure what is the best way to remove a small spot from the unified background in C1 ? For example green grass and small red stick in it etc. I tried something (removÄ› spot tool, healing layer etc.) but did not work very well ...

  Quickest option is to use the spot removal tool located in the details tool tab, you may need to switch the type setting from dust to spot to get it to work for you. The spot removal tool can be used without making a new layer and is for small issue like sensor dust.
  
  If it is a more complex or larger area you need to address then a new layer with the healing or cloning tools would be a better fit. These are not the most intuitive tools when compared to photoshop so some practice may be need to get the hang of them.

  Yes, I tried them and it does not work very easy and is a bit frustrating when you cannot attain the simple task straight and it does everything else than you need ... (unlike the mentioned easy tools in Photoshop or Lightroom). Any quick straight tutorial without too much useless talking ? 😊

  Does this blog post help? (A few years old now, but the principle is unchanged.)

  In my case spot tool is first choice, Capture One clone layer second and Affinity third choice because it drops me out of nondestructive workflow.
  
  The key thing is learning how to adjust the clone vector source and destination points (the two ends of the arrow). The C1 solution is not so much "not as good as" Affinity (PS, LR) as different. The lack of a preview under the brush is a pain, it can be mitigated by moving the arrow and by using guides.
  
  There will always be times when you need an external editor, but now I have the hang of the C1 way it's not that often for minor spots.
