A 2012 historical retrospective on the subject from Larry Tesler (the NOMODES man himself): https://www.lri.fr/~mbl/ENS/FundHCI/2013/papers/Tesler-CutCo...
The issue he had with the “move to” operation is that it forced you into a mode where you had to pick a destination right away. I wonder if OP’s proposal was ever brought up at the time—it does seem like a promising middle ground!

The article points out that the problem is deeper than this:

It didn’t matter how much weight I gained or lost, whether I contorted my body or tried to buy my way into styles that “flatter” my silhouette, there was no chance that clothes would ever fit perfectly on their own.

The fact that OP was a new account communicating completely via LLM made me suspicious. He does seem legit though based on his more recent comments.
