        There are a lot of words that have same meanings but are different. In this case, つつ is more of a writing language, so it's more formal I guess? Seriously speaking though, I've passed N1 at 158/180, but I still don't know a lot of these. You don't really need to.

        defintion-wise they're supposed to be the same but from what I hear, they're used differently. x~つつ, y puts emphase on not forgetting to do x while pursuing a greater goal y ~ながら is just the general purpose x while y like be on the phone while driving (ながら運転)

        what I mean is there would never be つつ運転 Dogen knew this but won't tell you. That's the joke.

        denotes that it follows something like, for example, you know how we end verbs with "ing" to show current action? e.g. running you could say it as "using ~ing with a verb makes it present tense action" kind of meaning

        isn’t 〜ながら used for conversations, while 〜つつ is used for written texts?

        I feel like ながら is always used for simultaneous actions while つつ is not necessarily at the exact same time

        Likewise, the difference between 人々 and 方々 is that one is N3 while the other is N1.
