In fact "Without moving the mouse" is irrelevant in step 6. All that matters is where the mouse was when you middle-clicked in step 5. All middle clicks subsequent to step 5 have the same (bad) effect regardless of the mouse position, pasting the same unintended selection each time. I presume that having an *active* selection at step 5 makes the difference. More testing confirms that the initial middle click in step 5 updates the selection with the text between the start of the active selection and the position of the middle click.
