just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
(Most acoustic players would be better if they bent one quarter as many notes. There are many other things which work better on acoustic,)
As for other embellishments ... I do way too many of them. Hamer-ons, pull-offs, trills and more trills ... I overdo it. But I'm working on being more selective with it, and also with playing more long notes and more rests. Give me another 50 years and I'll get the hang of this instrument. Really!
there must be a real name for that
but other than that I really don’t get all the percussive acoustic stuff as a norm, although that Newton Faulkner chap is very melodic with it

Lowering my expectations has succeeded beyond my wildest dreams.

It was perfectly normal and acceptable, during his life, for Embellishments of any piece of music to be spontaneously added when played live, just as anyone of us might, for instance, spontaneously add some improvisation whilst playing guitar solo.
Maybe make a start by reading Dorian Bandy's learned text, which it available online at Cambridge University Press for anyone to read, which is recent and dates from 2022. This publication has the title : "Thema da Capo : Another Look at Mozart's Embellishments". There are multiple hyper links to pieces of music, which demonstrate many of the differing forms of Embellishment.
