good point! Excellent, in fact!
The advantage being that when you cut and paste you get the option to numerically specify a start point, whereas when you slide, it's all visual. When sliding multiple tracks, it's easy to get slight misalignments.

But, in defense of sliding:
when you want to slide to the right, it's so easy to highlight the whole track with CTRL-A then visually nudge it...
