You can move without disconnecting, you have to "drag" instead of move. Press G. Last time I tried it it just created a ratsnest of random angles wires though so you still have to fix them all one by one.

That's also why I ditched kicad, it's really a very very basic thing that every other software gets right. Wires should follow your part and do 0 and 90 angles only... Then all you have to fix are overlaps, if any.

I would recommend you both try recent KiCad in that case, because what you're asking for is how it has worked since KiCad 9 (and 10 will also warn you about overlaps visually)
