Mid snap doesn't work on blocks?

This is literally just the result of the Box command, put in a Block and then I’m trying to move it.

What am I missing here?

If I explode the block I get the mid snap between the temporary anchoring points, but that doesn’t make any sense.

It seems to work here.

Upload a file with your block maybe?

And system info…

My bad, I think I snapped to the insertion point.

You’re right, snapping to mid of two other snaps doesn’t work on blocks

Thanks for confirming. But that’s so weird, though. Why should temporary anchoring points at all care about from what type of geometry they were created? Like, you can always find the mid point between two points, and that’s what I have.
