Transcription- Split & Merge disappear from Transcript panel when Program Moniter is active

Auto Transcription- Split and Merge functions disappear from Transcript panel when the Program Monitor/Timeline are active. They are available only when Source Monitor is active. WHY!?!??

I want them available when I'm editing my sequences on the timeline. This also effects seperating and renaming speakers. I can only do this when the source clip is active in the source monitor. Everyone's workflows are different. And I much prefer to do my editing of the transcript on the timeline so I can have several of my clips loaded. Instead I'm having to go through every source clip first and make sure to correct everything even stuff I might not use on the off chance that I end up adding it my sequence. If I add it to my sequence before editing the source then I'm stuck going back and forth from my sequence to the source clips in my project file and having to work on the transcript there. The transcript editing should work in both directions or at least give users the option to have edits work in both directions, i.e. currently you can only edit the split and merge dialogue and change speaker names in the source transcript via the Source Monitor for it to change in the Program Monitor/active sequence and that's the only direction the edits flow. I should have the ability to allow edits made in the active sequence/Program Monitor to change the source transcript too.

I've attached a screenshot of the missing split and merge buttons when Program Monitor is active and a screenshot of the buttons when the Source Monitor is active.
