This has been posted on before, but it's one of those small QoL issues that would be nice to not have to think about. if I'm quickly trying to take mags or rearm off a body/vehicle i suddenly pick up extra things i don't want because the item position in the inventory moves on it's own while i am looting. Why?

In my eyes this is not only a "small QoL issue". This is a missing essential functionality of the engine itself. The presentation of items in the inventory has to be some kind of sorted to prevent it from "jumping".
And it is an inventory thing: The player interacts every session with it and in looting situations it has to be happen quickly and the player shouldn't have to fight against the interface then.

I agree, as a feature that interacts closely with the player it's important to fix these issues and polish the feature well
