Yeah it drives me a bit insane too. I often end up just manually placing everything. I wish it had a mode where you roughly place things and it spaces them consistently without significantly changing their relative positions

Cura is guilty of this last part too. It'll flip parts around however it sees fit, which isn't ideal because then you get z-seams in all different areas, so matching parts no longer match.
