Copying doesn't have visual feedback, which is the issue.

I'd rather cut/paste in old place/paste in new place to get that feedback!

Good old Ctrl+X Ctrl+Z, Ctrl+V.

I'm a Ctrl+X Ctrl+V, Ctrl+V kinda guy

My people!

NO! You're doing it terribly wrong!! It's Ctrl+X, Ctrl+V, and then Ctrl+V!!!

Ctrl+X, get distracted, Ctrl+V no output. Realisation. Suffering.
-
Always use a copy buffer!
Like the one built in to newer windows versions via win+V or the loads of them available for Linux.
-
GNOME has this great extension called "Clipboard History", that you can use to save your clipboard for later use.

Windows itself could acknowledge it, something like a pulse around the selected text or the edges of the window, kinda like it does for screenshots
