Ahhhhhhhhhhhh .. thank you. My brain finally understands. "Edit" can also be about location, and not just content. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    Think 'edit' in terms of 'alter' or 'modify' or 'change'.

      I'd suggest taking edit literally, but not in the meaning it's used in computer programs, but rather meaning to prepare for printing, like what editors of a journal do to make it more readable. This can involve moving the article to somewhere else in the journal.
