Default Excel change SUM references if you cut & paste the first cell in SUM...

Hi,

A problem came from a user today. Set up: IN A1: " =SUM(A2:A6) " and in A8:
" =SUM(A9:A13) " and fill in some figures in A9:A13.

Cut A10 and paste it to A4. everything is ok.
If I cut A9 you get "Circular Reference error, because the formula in A8 has
changed to: " =SUM(A4:A13) " and the old SUM it still there in A8.

Why? Should it be that way, and what is the purpose? Any workarounds?

/Kind regards
