I don't see any difference here (Win10). When I drag-drop files from the app it works same as if I drag-drop files from Windows Explorer except the order of the files are the same as in the app list no matter where the drag starts from (unlike Windows Explorer).

Maybe Reaper is behaving differently for both of us (I use the latest update on Win10 as well) but I attached a couple of images of what is going on. Each marker shows a different method.
In the first two markers I selected track 3 on all import methods with 4 media files and first used drag and drop and "Insert Media" without the app which both resulted in the same result of the 4 files placed under another on consecutive tracks (and uses existing tracks if there is any). This is my desired result and what I'd assume most people would want but maybe I misunderstand what people want from this. I like the possibility to add the files on new tracks, though.
For the next two markers I used the "Add to Reaper" button in the app both with and without the "Insert Into project (Multi-Track)" option. These methods resulted in inserting the files on new tracks below the selected one in an odd way. Without the aforementioned option turned on it's kind of not usable in the middle of a project and turning it on makes it very niche with the diagonal placement of the files.
I don't know whether this is what is supposed to happen but I was expecting the add button to place the files directly under another as when dragging and dropping. I can settle for using the app as an extra step to drag and drop and it's still great, but if the "Insert Into Project (Multi-Track)" option added the files directly under another and not diagonally it'd be perfect (while still being different from dragging and dropping since you will create new tracks per file).
