It does, however. Some functions are sensitive to where they are called from. ROW, COLUMN, and INDIRECT for example. Therefore we need to recalculate moved cells and anything that depends on them. If I remember correctly we just ask for recomputation of everything because it is, in general, faster than trying to follow dependents of a very large area. But that doesn't explain why things are slow to begin with. To evaluate that we would need to see a sample spreadsheet that misbehaves. (And you should make sure you are using a recent version.) bugzilla.gnome.org is best for this. A workaround worth trying is to turn off automatic recomputation.
