If you use the -tps flag of gdalwarp, it will strictly honour your GCPs. Cf https://gdal.org/programs/gdalwarp.html#cmdoption-gdalwarp-tps and https://gdal.org/api/gdal_alg.html#_CPPv424GDALCreateTPSTransformeriPK8GDAL_GCPi

"The thin plate spline transformer produces exact transformation at all control points and smoothly varying transformations between control points with greatest influence from local control points. It is suitable for for many applications not well modeled by polynomial transformations."

Could someone explain how GCP's placed into a VRT file work, i was expecting a linear/bi-linear, or polynomial fit between the points for the simplest EPSG:4326 projection.

however that is not what i see, adjusting a single point, effects the projection of all corner points.

for example,

a vrt file that starts...

<VRTDataset rasterXSize="5328.0" rasterYSize="2160.0">
    <GCPList Projection="EPSG:4326">
<GCP  Id="1" Info="a" Pixel="0.0" Line="2160.0" X="-93.6369420815179" Y="41.9822570038769" /> <GCP  Id="2" Info="b" Pixel="5328.0" Line="2160.0" X="-93.636924110907" Y="41.9822308438819" /> <GCP  Id="3" Info="c" Pixel="5328.0" Line="0.0" X="-93.6369153669777" Y="41.9822348674463" /> <GCP  Id="4" Info="d" Pixel="0.0" Line="0.0" X="-93.636927955436" Y="41.9822605751492" />
</GCPList>
.....

if i adjust the 0,0 point to be further east, when i look at the resulting remaped image, all corner image points have shifted, rather than just the single corner location for 0,0

what am i missing here?

many thanks
Joe
