Unintentional content lock in

Why can I only select a single paragraph in the draft editor of my content? No doubt theres some reasonable technical argument for this that engineering makes every time the product team brings it up. In practice, the result is the 500 word draft with a list in the middle will take me 10 minutes to copy/paste out of the Medium app into Editorial. Please dont make me feel stupid.
