Why is Apple restricting us from moving photos from the recent file?

The question is why, why are they so mean and nasty to us? I want to separate my photos to different files based on the subject matter, and then remove them from the recent file. MOST ARE NO LONGER RECENT!!!!! It makes me so mad, if permitted I would use profanity to demonstrate my frustration. PLEASE change things so we can put pictures where we want them. Maybe I’ll just delete my entire usage of Apple products.

We’re not Apple. We’re other users. (Threatening to leave Apple? Fine by me.)

The library is where your photos always reside. Photos can be added into or removed from any number of albums, but the photos themselves always reside in and never leave the library. Don’t like Recents? Ignore it, pending some potential future behavior change to Recents implemented by Apple.
