  the omission of cut/paste is intentional. what happens if you cut a file, don't paste, and cut another file? where did it go? into the ether. you can actually enable cut with a simple command in terminal, it will move the files/folders to the trash. you just can't then paste. however, using applescript you can duplicate cut/paste actions and assign them to command keys and enable it yourself. in the amount of time you've spent bitching about it you could be happily cutting/pasting.
