It is! That's what is most maddening about this version of Cura for me.
I've tried the move option but the auto-slicing causes great pauses (as does layer view scrolling up and down (even using the arrow keys)

Share the model, please.
Autoslicing can be turned off.
It's a model I paid for and can't share.
Yes ,I have auto slicing shut off
I'm going to see if I can find a model on Thingiverse that can replicate the issue for you to see
Okay well moving it down via the mouse isn't much fun.... but manually typing in 0.1 mm seemed to bring it down just enough to show the complete first layer.
Again...weird that I run into this so many times lately! Cura does a much better job in regards to the Start/Stop line (z seam) and I really want to see how well it does with the Polyalchemy Elixir filament. I'll give it a shot and let you know in 13 hours!
It took a while...and I had to add brim for all that support to stick down better....
Purple Porg!
I've started a few threads about this.
It is one of the questions that IS NOT HAPPENING.
PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN!
If there is any serious interest in fixing this, I'll gladly link to a couple relevant threads. Check out: https://community.ultimaker.com/topic/22569-bed-not-detected-right-in-slicingpositioning/ but there are other issues such as "lay on bed" not working right. It is a big problem and manually positioning stuff is just part of Living with Cura.
Cool model though.

Is the bottom of the model actually flat? The Lay Flat algorithm in Cura isn’t all that smart, and just checks if three vertices touch the buildplate. 3 points define a plane, but the 4th may actually be slightly off that plane.
You can always use the move tool to move the model slightly down into the buildplate. This will ensure a flat bottom surface.
