I totally "get it" -- basically you want it to work like you expect it to work. Unfortunately, so did the original author! as does everyone else!
I wanted to ignore this email because I would agree, that if it would work for the original author, then it fits his or her needs. Today I am editing again and from usability perspective try this one;
You have 4 tracks, VAAA. Add some media so you are sure you can see what happens. In front of it you create 30s of silence.
Go to a new asset. View it. Set in-out points, and copy (not to clip). Now go to the front of the timeline and paste.Notice that VAA is moving, but the last audio track does not, hence VAAA directly becomes out of sync. This also happens when you would drag and 'snap' a clip to the beginning of the time line. But it does not when you drag a clip in between on silence space.
To me the above behavior shows:1. I am either unaware of the option not to have the assets on the timeline move (see subject on the email) 2. Or we must agree that this moving behavior for a NON-linear editor is far from be desired. I would even say, like the labels locking moving, we must have an option that would always just overwrites.
It is open source, everyone can fix it, bla bla. Without a "developer manual" every capable C/C++ developer would first have to dig in very deep in order to comprehend how the UX actually works, let alone how to change it.
