I have done some research on this feature and would like to have other
DBAs shed light on its real-life usage...

- this statement will require a lock for the entire operation of the
move. If not, please explain how?
- even though, there is an 'online' keyword, but it can only be used on
IOTs not heap tables.
- It will keep the indexes on the new table but will make them unusable.
- stats will be invalidated as well.
- I would like to know how does Oracle do the  move internally and how
it impacts user transactions? Could not find this information anywhere.
