These it true only for dynamic symbols. If a symbol is static, it works like it is expected. Ai allows selection of sub-parts in a dynamic symbol, for changing their appearance, but no transformations are allowed, only visual tweaks... so I suspect the team forgot to check if a selection is a part of a larger selection, to allow the whole symbol to move. Or perhaps it was not as easy to detect. Either way it feels more like a bug.
