Additional comments
Manually setting each Menu Item to "Hide" works as expected. Its only the global Article Options that is not working.

In the general "Article Options", which apply to all articles, there is a "Show Feed Link" option. This is set to "Hide".
The menu item is for a "Category Blog". It has its own "Show Feed Link" option set to "Use Global".
Thus, I would either expect the articles to respect their "Hide" setting OR I would expect the page to respect the menu item setting of "Use Global", which points to "Hide". But instead the feed links are still being shown. I have to further set the menu item option for "Show Feed Link" to "Hide" before the feed links are actually hidden.
In other words, the "Use Global" option serves no purpose.

This depends on what type of menu item it is. If the menu item is pointing directly to the article in question, the article settings will be overruled by the menu item, thus using the global seeting.
If the menu item is eg a category list, then the article settings will have priority over the menu item.
Can you double check that?

Can't confirm. Disabling feed in global content options doesn't show the feed if the param is set to "Use Global" in the category blog or list view.
When you test, make sure you clear the caches (also in Joomla). It may be a cached page you see.
