If it worked like that, there would be no way to drag content (image or
caption) into or out of the Figure.
You wouldn't say that if you selected any paragraph in a section and
dragged it, then the whole section should move.
I agree there are times when having to select the correct scope can seem an
irritating extra chore, but it is better to be consistent than to have a
few ad-hoc exceptions, even if they are convenient 'most of the time'.
There are a few cases where it is hard to select a par of a structure
rather than the whole, and they can be irritating.
