Additional Information
We should be clear what is meant by honoring the extent of the map. An existing map frame does not get an extent from a zoomed map view. You can get a map frame extent from a zoomed map view only when INSERTING a new map frame. You cannot do this when switching source maps for an existing map frame. When you switch source maps the map frame is supposed to pull the full extent of the map. It doesn't matter what extents the map views (same map) are. Existing map frames don't know anything about map views at this point. It only knows what is defined in the map (map properties) or what constraints are set for the map frame (map frame proprieties). If the map has a basemap, and there is no custom full extent set on the map, and you switch a map frame to use this map, and there are no constraints set on the map frame, the new map frame extent will be the world with the center point at 0, 0 (WGS 84 web mercator). Given the scenario in this bug, ArcGIS Pro is working as designed. For more information please see the following help topics: "Map frame constraints" (https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/layouts/customizing-your-map-extent.htm) and "Set the map extent" (https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/mapping/properties/set-a-custom-full-extent.htm).Steps to Reproduce
