You can move an item 1,000,000,000 times and those values won't change.

Where you place the item is a different matter.

I think some people get tripped up by items not being exactly on grid and leaving snap to media items on or using duplicate actions. Since regions snap to the end of adjacent regions I can see how this happens there too.
Yeah, I've never understood the claims of accumulated inaccuracy. It has never happened to me, no matter how much I loop or copy/paste. I think it must be as you say, and it is user error (though, as a few users do fall into it, maybe snap settings need to be a bit more... user friendly?).
