If you create a materialized view (MV) locally for the remote table, "... AS SELECT * FROM ..._at_link.. " but with predicate 'WHERE ... AND 1=0', does the metadata on this MV show you the column size difference?

I have tried the above technique, for many nefarious purposes, and just wondering if it would work in your case, too.

Greetings. :-)
