(Animation is of me trying to copy-paste the same object over and over, but each time I paste it, I need to move the edge of the object one pixel to the right, move a whole object one pixel to the right, then repeat.)
Is there an easier way to do this repetitive task?

Hello:
I think that this is a work for the interpolate extension.
But You have to apply separatedly to the blue thin path and the wide white path

Uhm, ... other way is using tiled clones:

Thank you hulf2012, you saved the day!
All I needed was Edit --> Clone --> Create Tiled Clones.
Clones can be moved by precise pixels by using even percentages and items with even pixels. I was quite clever in how I achieved my desired results. Here's a gif animation to explain it. And yes, the slider comes out to be perfectly pixel-accurate.
