Default Referencing a cell even if its contents are moved moved/replaced

Copy and paste the below formula in A1 cell and drag it to the remaining
cells of Column A.

=INDIRECT("B"&ROW())

Remember to Click Yes, if this post helps!

I want to reference a cell no matter what happens to it.

Simple example:

From A1 down:
A1=B1
A2=B2
A3=B3

From B1 down:
5
10
15

If I cut and insert B3(15) into B2, the A column would then read as:

A1=B1
A2=B3
A3=B2

How do I keep the A column referencing the original cell?
