So after working with CAT and HumanIK systems... what's the point of those things? Gizmo from CAT and Affectors from HumanIK. They look like animator controllers, so I don't have to to directly manipulate the skeleton, BUT they only interact with the skeleton when creating the keyframe for the first time.  

For example, I create a pose, the Gizmo/Affectors are keyframed on the timeline; the skeleton is keyframed on the timeline. All good right? Then I change the timing on the Gizmo/Affectors by adding/reducing frames between the keyframes, but the Gizmo/Affectors don't change the timing of the skeleton... and I get all kinds of weird twitches and pops. 

Whats the point of these Gizmos/Affectors... what are they good for?
