Need advice on re-uploading an app
after deleting it from my Home Screen. I can still open the app in the App Store, but want to get it back on my screen now that it’s working properly again.
Suggestions?

As soon as I figure something out, Apple changes things.
I completely lost an app on the iphone, and was going bonkers trying to find it.
Turns out that the developer renamed it!
But most of my "lost" apps turn up in folders. If you (OP) are not familiar with folders, they are a great way to reduce clutter.
Put your most-used apps "up front" and put the others you rarely use in folders (drag one on top of another to create a folder. You can rename it from whatever Apple defaults it to). Then use search to find rarely used items.
Works for me. Even in the folders, if they are labeled "calc" or "astro" they make things real easy to find.
With macs, agree, the dock rules. You can also use spotlight search to find an app, launchpad, or Quicksilver or Alfred ( third party apps. I use Quicksilver) to launch an app. My dock is crowded. I rarely use it any more, except to drag a file onto an app icon.Otherwise, I use the default app for that file type (you can change it) or right-click or control-click on a file and "Open With ->"
Until Apple changes things again.
HTH
Good luck
