OK. Hold on. I focused to much and somehow did not create the implicit indexes.... Duh I'll be back (maybe).

There has been discussion on this before on Oracle-L as I have googled and come across some of it.
I am having trouble recreating the cases for using Explicit indexes, over implicit (as shown by query three in time).
Specifically for case 1, creating and index that 'could' be used by an unique or primary key constraint. Thus expdp/impdp would drop the implicit index and use the 'could' one. I wonder if you could suggest one.
For case 2, dropping the unique or primary key constraint would drop the associated index. (I wonder if that is also true for a Foreign Key constraint that is using a unique index - Theoretical muse)
If it matters, then maybe PK,PX, UK,UX is worth it, and the standard would be expanded to create these in a certain way.
Can someone suggest an Index, or show why this behavior is not happening with my below example?
