Ha ha that's too funny as I actually could not get my head around any editing in Piano view for years. I did all my editing in what would be Sonars Event veiw. I too looks at songs by the math of the numbers, 12, 24 , 48 and 96. I think triplets where 8, 16 and 32. It all added up to 96 = a whole note.
Oh my god did we waist time on that! Calkewalk's Guitar studio forced me to use Piano view editing because the event list was so bad compared to Dr T KCS. It still is.
