Just to confirm my otherwise vague memories, has OSX always supported cmd + x and cmd + v in the finder. Basically I'm asking Did the software basically do nothing or was that functionality missing?
If it was missing I would say for $5 for a quick fix for those that don't want to look any further for a solution, this is not robbery is it?
It's only been possible to cut and paste files since OS X 10.7, and it's not done with cmd+x/cmd+v, but cmd+c and then cmd+option+v for "move items here". I guess the logic behind it is that "cutting" a file would not delete it, and that files are different from text and images in that way.

I'd have to start bisecting versions of OS X to find exactly which, but up until a versions ago cmd-x didn't do anything in Finder. Cmd-c worked, but not cmd-x.

i'm on macOS Sierra and cmd +x does not work. Well under the global menu there is "cut", but it's greyed out for files/folders.
