"files stay here for the team" prevents me from moving files from team to personal folder

My thread had been merged with this thread, and I have already read this thread, so I posted my thread in the hope that Dropbox will come to its senses and remove this insanely annoying feature. So has it been disabled? Because copying then deleting is asking for mistakes (such as deleting the wrong file) to happen.

As team admins, we honestly do. not. care. if "other team members" lose access to that data. For smaller organisations, there is the options of simply getting up from one's desk, walking over to the other person's desk, and asking. That "for the team" should be an OPT IN option for larger organsation, not some fixed, unchangeable default. TURN IT OFF NOW

It seems to be a recent update issue and the only thing that can probably be done is to overwhelm the Dropbox people into TURNING IT OFF NOW

As a workaround you can open two windows, copy from one, tab to the other, paste there, and if it worked, tab back to the original window and delete the files which should still be selected. In case you want to get work done while dropbox fiddles.

>> Gaslighting is actually a feature we've just launched, but has also always been part of the product, so this is the expected behaviour.  Could you send a screen recording of the problem?

I - as admin of this thread - need to be able to like this response multiple times. Liking it only once is not enough.

Anytime soon?

This "feature" is infuriating. As an admin, I should be allowed to manage my folder tree as I see fit. This feature needs to be opt-out at the very least. DROPBOX REVERT THIS CHANGE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

I - a TEAM ADMIN - cannot move files or folders from a team folder, to my personal (i.e. ADMIN) folder. I get an incredibly annoying message "files stay here for the team". How do I get around this?
