I think there’s a different hotkey for that, maybe G. M doesn’t bring your wires. I don’t use click-dragging, so I’m not sure. It’s also been about two months since I’ve worked in KiCAD
I don’t agree that dragging keeping wires is sane behavior. There may be preferences to modify. I like the hotkeys because it’s much faster than context menus. I’m also the type to use AutoCAD commands for everything instead of the ribbon.
The biggest issue years ago was selecting footprints after schematic design before board layout. Now you can choose from a drop-down as you draw your schematic.

Well… I’m afraid you’re wrong about that. It’s the behaviour almost all users expect, it’s the most useful behaviour, and it’s the behaviour of virtually all software that has wire-like interfaces.
Can you imagine if all the nodes in Blender disconnected every time you moved them? Ridiculous.
IIRC when you dragged a component in the schematic view all of the wires would get left behind. Have they fixed face-palms like that?

I would consider it still horribly broken if you have to use a special hotkey to get sane behaviour.
