Right, on the other side for (heap) tables or partitioned tables there is a great difference in performance between CTAS over INSERT APPEND but only in case when the target table has indexes (but INSERT APPEND to a table with indexes is better than INSERT without APPEND)

>From your description I assume that your target tables have no indexes. In
this case I didn't observed significant difference in behavior between CTAS (nologging parallel) and INSERT APPEND (with parallel dml enabled) on tables and range partitioned tables.
