This is expected behavior: The playhead always displays the frame to its ri=
ght.

If you zoom into the clip you just shortened, you'll see that in the timeli=
ne
ruler there is a thin white line to the right of the playhead triangle. This
indicates the frame the project monitor is displaying. Since you shortened =
the
clip by snapping the clip's edge to the playhead, the frame being displayed=
 is
the one where the playhead sits on at the line between the frame to the left
and the frame to the right of the playhead.

This is most likely a remnant from the days when cutting was the process of
physically cutting the filmstrips. You had to decide to cut before or after=
 the
frame you are looking at. If frame-accurate cutting is so important to you,=
 you
need to zoom the timeline to actually see each frame.
