Can't extend compound clip length in timeline

Apple Feedback Assistant ID: FB13773396

DESCRIBE THE BUG: I added additional content to a compound clip, yet when I switch back to the timeline, I cannot extend the clip and show the newly added content.


TO REPRODUCE: For any compound clip where I extend the footage, I cannot extend the clip once back in the timeline.


EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR: I should be easily extend a clip in the timeline by just dragging the ends

here is another example, it's pretty annoying and adding unnecessary time to workflow https://drive.google.com/file/d/11KQ4kvTiar_eUQh-twMSOmY-nstIal46/view?usp=sharing

So I figured out what the issue was: if you re-time a compound clip, you still can add new content to it, but you will not be able to expand it. If you break that compound clip apart, you will lose the additional content and VoiceOver, which is also bad. I don't think that is intended behaviour please see video here. https://drive.google.com/file/d/11TS9rken_Qe921Cf1POdIRC3yEtgp4OM/view?usp=sharing

Hi, Chris, I hope you are well. Just a quick observation: I recently changed to a Mac Studio Ultra with 128 GB of RAM, and since it switched, I have not had a single crash of any plug-in. My gut feeling has always been that there is a memory leak or that the nonworking plug-ins somehow have to do with memory, which this could affirm.
