No offense, but this simply isn't true in my experience. FCP permits you to load a sequence into the viewer and use it as a source to cut to a new sequence. Or, you can copy & paste clips between sequences. I do this all the time and have done so on numerous documentaries, TV shows and films.

I do agree that cut lists are another story. But quite frankly the last 35mm feature I did went through a DI and, even though I cut on Avid and supplied all the necessary lists, the only thing they used was an EDL.
