maya2025: Maya wont snap all selected vertices to the vertex near the mouse ('snap to points')

A handy trick I have been using for a while is if I have a bunch of vertices that have all their varying height positions (y axis) selected, with 'snap to points turned on' and the pivots y axis active, I can just hold down middle mouse button and drag near a vertex that I want all the selected vertices to have the same height as.

Today this is no longer working, instead of all the selected vertices having the same height as the referenced vertex, they retain their relative height to one another, and just get moved to the referenced vertex.

I thought the culprit was "retain component spacing" but its off in my tool settings, yet I am still getting this issue. Is this one of those cases where something is off in one place but could be on in another? If not what is causing this??

How do I get back the old point snapping feature I was used to?
