Sculpting is captured at the start of each beat.
If you pressed the sculpt key just before the start of a beat, then the old
way, you would sculpt two steps.
The ideal implementation is probably to have a window for sculpt from half a
beat before, to half a beat after, so you can easily pick out one step to
sculpt.

I didn't start out doing it that way. The transpose knobs in playlist edit
still have zero in the middle.
But there isn't enough resolution to add a dead zone and still have the full
range of values.
I got fed up hunting for a mid-point zero on bi-polar knobs, and decided
just to make zero fully anticlockwise.
I think once you accept that's the way it works, it can make life easier.
