You can't beat a boofhead with words of reason, only a club.

Thank you for the helpful comments; I apologize for my less useful ones.  
 
Aim assist, do you know, leaves a cursor behind in track view when you mouse away from track view (in the upward direction only, it seems)  -- so it can be really confusing.    Maybe that's a feature request?    Same happens in event list, and always has --- there's a non-binding rectangular cursor left behind when you change focus to another window.     Both really are (dare I say it?) bugs in the UI. 

Screenshot shows the unfortunate effect of Aim Assist -- now there are 5 cursors visible.   Not really helpful!   Only one of them is 'real' but it's not easy to tell which one without a focus-detracting click-around.   Actually the picture shows 5 cursors, there are really six -- the mouse arrow does not get picked up in screen shots.  
 

 
 

I see something odd, but not 5 cursors. It looks like the track view and piano roll view are showing different times where the now time and the aim assist are sitting. That has to be a bug of some sort, they should be the same times in both views. You're onto something William.

Well, if you take the two 'Now Time' markers out (both of them are correct, as confirmed by the duplicate versions of Now Time in Track View and in the control bar), then there are three bad or at least contradictory cursors  -- or four, counting the windows mouse arrow again.
