multiple timelines

Is premiere no longer optimized for a multiple timeline editing approach? I will often have 2 timelines open, one which is my narrowed down, colored "selects", and the other timeline with is my sequential. I bounce clips back and forth across each of these when editing my videos. I have noticed in the last year this has become very clunky. I don't want to relearn a whole new approach. Is adobe trying to discourage this type of editing in favor for more bins and media browser involvment?
