Why can't I move these gradient anchors at all? I can only slide them up and down but sometimes I want to adjust the placement of them.

You control the placement of the Gradient with the two end handles. The one at the start of the Gradient adjusts the position, and the one at the end adjusts the angle.

Annie, is this a screengrab from Illustrator? I don't recall seeing control points with sliders in Ps.

Larry, neither had I, but they are there in v26.8. They work quite well, from my limited testing. Adobe is slowly getting these new Gradients up to speed. Now if they can only fix the foreground/background color update bug.
