I would like to mix the two areas defined by the insertion point. I'm sure there's a way to do that without bending too much iron, but I can't figure it out.
Thanks!

No, I really didn't want to crossfade - wanted to mix those two areas.
I managed to struggle through and just now got it done:
1. Created a ne clip of the righthand side into a new track
2. Time-shifted the new track so that the sections in question lined up
3. Mixed the two tracks and rendered
(BTW: When I did that, the track that contained the split-out part disappeared - what if I didn't want it to disappear?)
That ended up with what I wanted to accomplish. Is here perhaps a more straightforward way to do that?

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but perhaps "Mix and Render to New Track" rather than "Mix and Render".
